Sounds to me like you have just the SVN repo location defined but not 
yet checked out,
can that be?

I agree with Barrie, would be best to upate documentation/instructions, 
I noticed the same when explaining to Dave that we who know it take a 
lot of things as granted/obvious.


The Eclipse setup guide in our trac wiki which Peter did long ago would 
perhaps be the best point to start.

And provide a link to it in the "main" web page (the one with the pink 
icon, you know ;-)

http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/colossus/

http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/colossus/wiki/EclipseSetup

In that respect, that I did "personal consulting" for Dave few days ago 
was basically the wrong way...
but especially right now I am ...hmm.... not at my peek performance...
