I spent some time improving the "provider names" report, mostly for bug 400235. So it should be more accurate now.
http://build.eclipse.org/simrel/kepler/reporeports/reports/providerNames.html Besides the appalling number of cases of "null" or "unknown" given for "Provider name" (which has always been true) I noticed a number of cases where people were giving the name of a company for provider name ... this is ok for a bundle that is a true "third party" bundle, but ... seems a fairly large number have been introduced for "org.eclipse .... " bundles. This seems wrong ... sort of against the spirit of Eclipse. The "Provider Name" should be "Eclipse <project name>". Here's a few that stood out ... but, could be others. org.eclipse.gemini.jpa 1.1.0.RC1 Oracle Corporation org.eclipse.libra.framework.core 0.3.0.201212132137 Eteration A.S. org.eclipse.ptp.rm.ibm.platform.lsf.ui 1.0.0.201303201633 IBM org.eclipse.emf.diffmerge.sdk.feature.feature.group 0.1.0.v20121203-0924 Thales Global Services S.A.S. Please fix as many of these "Provider Names" as possible ... it'll make Eclipse look much more professional when people look at the "about box" and similar.
