That's great, I had forgotten that you were doing this at Erlang Solutions
too. Compared to CEAN, though, I miss having a self-executable archive.

All in all, it looks doable to install Erlang from inside Eclipse, it's
mostly a matter of defining how it's going to be done (and also there's a
question if one can run the installation program as root...). A related
feature would also be a front-end for the package repositories.
