Welcome

The Eclipse IDE Meta-tooling Platform (IMP) is a project from IBM Research that was formerly known as "SAFARI." The goal of the Eclipse IMP is to provide an extensible platform for the development of high-quality, fully-featured, language-specific IDE's in Eclipse. The IMP is being released as an open-source project on SourceForge.net prior to submission of a proposal to make the Eclipse IMP an Eclipse Technology Project.

NOTE: This web site is generally under construction. We've been in the process of adapting our original IBM project web site to one that is suitable for open-source release while at the same time renaming the project from "SAFARI" to "IMP" (while also renaming "JikesPG" to "LPG"). We haven't quite finished that, yet, but we think that most of the information on the site is useful and usable, so we've released it on SourceForge. We'll be working to make it more complete and up-to-date. If you notice something that seems especially out of date (or just plain wrong) plesae let us know and we'll try to get to that first. Thank you for your help and patience!
