Jonah Graham f0c2358276 Migrate New and Noteworthy from Wiki to GitHub
This commit migrates all the N&N content from
https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/NewInCDT to GitHub.

For newer releases (>= CDT 10.0) the entire content has
been rewritten in GitHub flavour Markdown. For older
releases, the N&N page has simply been saved in a
rendered format.

## Download
The recommended way to obtain Eclipse CDT is to download it as part of the complete *Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers* or *Eclipse IDE for Embedded C/C++ Developers* or *Eclipse IDE for Scientific Computing* from the main [Eclipse IDE download site](https://eclipseide.org/release/).
Alternatively Eclipse CDT can be installed into an existing Eclipse installation using this p2 URL: `https://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/latest/` ([see how](https://help.eclipse.org/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.user/tasks/tasks-127.htm))
Downloads links for older versions are available in [Downloads](Downloads.md).
## Help & Support
The Eclipse CDT (C/C++ Development Tools) User Guide can be found in the [Eclipse Help - C/C++ Development User Guide](https://help.eclipse.org/latest/topic/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/concepts/cdt_o_home.htm).
The Eclipse forum for [C/C++ IDE (CDT)](https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/f/80/) is for users to ask questions on how to use Eclipse CDT. It is monitored by fellow users in the community for support. Stack Overflow also has an [eclipse-cdt](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/eclipse-cdt) tag that can be added to questions or searched for prevous similar questions.
The Eclipse CDT Plug-in Developer Guide can also be found in the [Eclipse Help - CDT Plug-in Developer Guide](https://help.eclipse.org/latest/topic/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.isv/guide/index.html).
There is an [FAQ](FAQ/README.md) covering many commonly asked questions for both user and developers and a [Contribution Guide](CONTRIBUTING.md) for guidance on editing Eclipse CDT's source and submitting changes.
## Reporting issues
Please report issues in the [GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/eclipse-cdt/cdt/issues).
## Vendor Supplied Eclipse CDT
Did you get your version of Eclipse CDT from a vendor (such as a chip maker)? If so, they generally support their customers. In that case issues and support questions should be directed at the vendor in the first instance.
We encourage all vendors who are extending and redistributing Eclipse CDT to engage with the project and contribute fixes and improvements back to the Eclipse CDT project.
## Contributing
[Contributions are always welcome!](./CONTRIBUTING.md)
Please bear in mind that this project is almost entirely developed by volunteers. If you do not provide the implementation yourself (or pay someone to do it for you), the bug might never get fixed. If it is a serious bug, other people than you might care enough to provide a fix.
## Code of Conduct
This project follows the [Eclipse Community Code of Conduct](https://www.eclipse.org/org/documents/Community_Code_of_Conduct.php).
## Migration from Gerrit, Bugzilla, Wiki, Eclipse Forums
In the summer of 2022 the Eclipse CDT project migrated from Gerrit, Bugzilla, Wiki, Eclipse Forums to GitHub based solutions. Please see [GitHub Migration](GitHubMigration.md) for more details.
