If you do not want to use the Eclipse Filesystem (EFS) for accessing remote resources through
your workspace, there is no need to update and you can also use 2.0M6:<ul>

EFS works best with SSH connections. FTP and dstore should work as well, but have not yet
received the same amount of testing. For more details, see the
<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=170916">EFS Plan Item [170916]</a>.
To bring remote resources into your workspace, there are several options:<ol>
We recommend the following procedure to bring remote resources into your workspace:<ul>
<li>In a normal workspace project, choose <b>"New Folder", "Advanced", "Link to folder in
file system"</b>, then select the RSE file system and browse to a remote folder. This is
the preferred and most stable method of working with remote resources for now.

including CDT, JDT etc. and can thus be used very well to test other kinds of
EFS integration issues to be done (along the lines of Eclipse Platform
<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=154126">Plan Item [154126]</a>).</li>
<li>Create a new project, on the location page disable "workspace", choose "rse" as file
system and browse to a remote folder. Works only if a .project file does not yet exist
at the chosen remote location. One disadvantage of this approach is that when
quitting and re-starting workbench, the project will be shown closed. You need to switch
to the RSE perspective, then open the project on each re-start of Eclipse. This will
be fixed by bug [<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=181460">181460</a>].</li>
<li>In RSE, browse to any remote folder and choose "right-click" > "Create Remote Project".
This will create an EFS based "plain" project with the name of the remote folder in
your workspace. It will have no specific nature assigned, and creation may fail (e.g
when a .project file is already there; or a project of the requested name already exists).
This 3rd approach of creating an EFS project exists for convenience for now, and may be removed
in the future.</li>
</ol></li>
</ul>
Creating whole projects based on RSE EFS is possible as well, but there are two
<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=181460">Platform Bugs</a>
related to early reading of the remote .project file,
which make this approach not adviseable for now.</li>
<li><b>Copy&Paste, Drag&Drop to Project Explorer</b> are finally fixed
[<a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=153652">153652</a>].
Same support for Windows Explorer is still on the list
