I understand your point about the lack of resources. For sure, more
contributors/workforce would be the solution to most issues.
But let's face it, the "lack of resources" problem has been there for
years, and despite of all efforts made by the project teams, the number
of contributors doens't grow that much. In parallel to making efforts to
get more contributors, we have to deal with this lack of resources in
the Eclipse community. A way to deal with this is to provide some
guidance to make the best things happen with the current amount of
contributors. And Eclipse Foundation is IMO the only organization which
is able to be efficient at listening to the "market" of IDEs and provide
summaries of what people from outside of the community see as main
issues in Eclipse in a sustainable. Then the Foundation could provide
recommendation to projects so they could take them into account in their
roadmap or in the way they prioritize bugs.
