Well, my plan was to stay with the last version of Eclipse that works with IvyDE, If it stops working, I'll wait a couple years (I'm a lazy bastard), and then update IvyDE myself -- if need be. If that were to prove impossible (very unlikely), I'd move to gradle (or what not) -- anything but maven (which I loath). Ant has a couple shortcomings, but I'm comfortable with it, and am able to accomplish feats the mere contemplation of which would make a mavenite cry for his mommy.
Even if a real release is not needed, IvyDE should probably do a "bump" release every two years -- just to let the world know the project isn't pushing up daisies.

Indeed, IvyDE does seem to be working well. Says good things about both IvyDE and the APIs in Eclipse, when something that's so old continues to work. But it does make me nervous to see no releases in nearly five years. Found the project page for IvyDE, and it says this is the right mailing list. In my travels to learn whether it's a dead project or not, I see an issue for exactly the problem I was experiencing which got me started down this rabbit hole: https://milton-web.wnyric.org/canit/urlproxy.php?_q=aHR0cHM6Ly9pc3N1ZXMuYXBhY2hlLm9yZy9qaXJhL2Jyb3dzZS9JVllERS0zODc%3D&_s=ZXJpZTE%3D&_c=d9250d65 The SVN trunk for ivyde shows a last commit date four years ago, but the github repository shows a commit TODAY. https://milton-web.wnyric.org/canit/urlproxy.php?_q=aHR0cHM6Ly9naXRodWIuY29tL2FwYWNoZS9hbnQtaXZ5ZGUvY29tbWl0cy9tYXN0ZXI%3D&_s=ZXJpZTE%3D&_c=d7420f6b Which prompts the question: Is IvyDE dead?
