The Eclipse Foundation has a strict policy of using only open source technology for its core infrastructure. The reason is that we have over 100 commerical members who compete in the marketplace and would love to point to Eclipse as a reference case for their software. Vendor neutrality is, upon occasion, a PITA.
This has been discussed at the Board many times, but if you want to raise it as an issue with the committer reps please do so. I just checked with the folks at Sonatype, and they have a standing offer of a free license for Nexus Pro, with no strings attached, for the Eclipse Foundation.
