I have released povclipse2-0.1.0, an eclipse plugin to manage POV-Ray 
source.
It is a 0.1 release, but it is far enough along that I can use it for my 
animation work.  The new parser is functional, but is weak; its 
expression handling gives up easy and decides the rvalue is an object 
(i.e. opaquely defined).

And I want to give you a BIG (render bigger) THANK YOU !

There is still some need for work, but it's already lovely to edit ini
file for rare options (the GUI to remind you of them <3 !)

Also, when creating a new project, the outline does not seems to work
for the automatically created pov file.
But it appears for added later file. And later (closed & reopened
project), it even works fine.

And the PovClipse2 Properties tab (project Properties) gives me an error.

And once the render is done, java/eclipse/whatever seems to take its
time to fill the render jobs view

But, to finish, IT IS GREAT !

I don't like when I create a new .ini and I forget how to add a source 
file. You have to click the label to activate the field, and I always 
forget that, and I wrote the damn thing. It's just such a non-normal gui 
thing.

Hmm, ok.  I'll look at that.

Yes, it still needs some slapping and kicking to get the motor running 
at speed.

This is interesting.  Can you send me a stack trace? It should be in 
/tmp/povclipse2.log

I'm not sure what you mean here.  I see when povray is finished, the 
picture and the texts come in immediately.  What irks me is povray 
doesn't seem to flush its streams to disk until it is done.  So until 
it's done, the only I have is the accurate % complete counter.

Got it.

My guess is you were looking at a project that you created with a 
previous version of povclipse2.
The $PROJECTROOT/.metadata directory was not created in previous versions.
I didn't notice this artifact of that bug. (The artifact I saw was, your 
commandline parameters were not persisted.)
