What are the patterns that one must know in order to contribute to Eclipse. I imagine a successfull plug-in is one that follows all the rules.

Eh, does the "Patterns" in the book title refer to the patterns used to hook the plugin into the framework (the "pointcuts" in plugin.xml), or the design patterns used in integrating with the framework (GUI, resource access, etc.)?
"Patterns" refers to both. We use Design and Implementation Patterns in discussing the implementation. We also discuss the "rules" of Eclipse, which are really patterns in disguise. Kent
