It is also not necessarily targeted at the existing eclipse community (at least not the sizable portion of this community focused on traditional enterprise Java) and at the moment there is no obvious migration path for desktop Eclipse efforts to Orion. The Orion community will emerge as a new community in its own right focused very heavily on web and cloud centric efforts.
