If one wants to create products for multiple platforms, downloading the eclipse Delta Pack (eclipse-3.8.2-delta-pack.zip) and setting up a "Target Platform" would also be required. In addition to these download files, one should also use the Eclipse update mechanism to install a few more packages:

- NOTE: This version at least made the getTemp app buildable for me; the latest (2.5.something) had an error related to JRE 1.8 so my guess is nebula dropped Java 8 support somewhere along the way?
- Add the URL in the "Work with" box, and select the Pgroup widget from the "Nebula Release Individual Widgets" section
- Subversive
