I couldn't think of anything to add to the title of this post that wouldn't be redundant. EasyEclipse is what it sounds like: A prepackaged installer for the Eclipse IDE that makes getting up and running with Eclipse really simple on Windows, OS X, or Linux. It comes in a variety of flavors to match your programming language/environment of choice, including Java, LAMP, PHP, Python, and Ruby on Rails. Each distribution comes with preinstalled plugins to make your life easier, but the EasyEclipse web site also has a variety of other plugins that are packaged similarly for ease of installation. The project was inspired by the Eclipse download hell post on Simon Willison's Weblog which, a year and a half after its original posting, is still the third result for Google searches for "Eclipse download."EasyEclipse
