We have the same sort of arrangement with Eclipse Jetty. The
simultaneous release includes Jetty and it's included in the packages
(to support the help system), but it's not a participant in the
release and is not listed as an installable feature.
Your project can pull in the required bits of Eclipse BIRT, but will
then be responsible for them.
I am getting some faint hope vibes that the BIRT team might re-engage,
but those are fleeting.

BIRT removal was discussed in December 2019
https://www.eclipse.org/lists/cross-project-issues-dev/msg17217.html
<https://www.eclipse.org/lists/cross-project-issues-dev/msg17217.html>
and the contribution was reduced to just the BIRT charting feature
which
solved the problems then. Is this proposal to remove that as well?
Eclipse Memory Analyzer uses BIRT charts for its useful (but
optional)
chart feature.
What options does MAT have for continuing to use BIRT charting?
The birt.aggrcon points to
https://download.eclipse.org/birt/update-site/oxygen-interim/
<https://download.eclipse.org/birt/update-site/oxygen-interim/>
with BIRT files dated 4.7.0.v201706222054.jar
but there is also
https://download.eclipse.org/birt/update-site/photon-interim/
<https://download.eclipse.org/birt/update-site/photon-interim/>
with BIRT files dated 4.8.0.v201905101549.jar
https://download.eclipse.org/birt/update-site/2018-09-interim/
<https://download.eclipse.org/birt/update-site/2018-09-interim/>
with BIRT files dated 4.9.0.v201905231911.jar
and full downloads, but not a p2 update site at
https://download.eclipse.org/birt/downloads/build.php?build=R-R1-4.8.0-201806261756
<https://download.eclipse.org/birt/downloads/build.php?build=R-R1-4.8.0-201806261756>
including birt-charts-4.8.0-20180626.zip
though SimRel can't choose a release - that is for the project. I
saw a
couple of new committer elections to BIRT in September/October
2020 but no
recent activity yet from them.
