There are four options:
1. Keep Cayenne Modeler as a Swing app as it is today.
2. Write a whole new Eclipse plugin from scratch
3. Fork the WOLips code as a starting point for writing a Cayenne Eclipse plugin
4. Work together with WOLips to have one multi-purpose modeler
It sounds like (4) may be difficult: I am sure it would be since there are competing goals and needs. And (3) might benefit us, but give nothing back to WoLips, so there will be no incentive for them to work together on new improvements. But still (3) might be easier than starting from nothing: surely easier than (2).
