For ParallelJ 0.7.x, based on top of Eclipse 3.6, we were using EEF so as to manage the properties view. We used the 0.8.x version of this framework, but since it was released in a 1.x version with Eclipse 3.7, all of our source code needs to be written again, as all the API changed.

As EEF is still delivered in incubation mode, and as we use it only for managing properties view (and quite simple properties view, by the way), it's not interesting for us to keep this framework as a dependency, as we need to write again all of our properties view. We should now use another tool so as to provide similar properties view, with a higher level of maintnability.
