Getting started with concurrency work

[Tom Kaitchuck]

I am getting started with the ideas I mentioned here:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ceylon-users/rbs2srcIp_Y
My thinking has refined somewhat since I posted that, I'll post an update when I have something.

Right now I am stumbling on trying to get the tests to run from within eclipse. 

I am seeing the same error reported here: 

https://github.com/ceylon/ceylon-ide-eclipse/issues/161

Everything works from ant, so I'm not sure what to make of it.

This is almost certainly related to how the .classpath files are setup in the repo. 
I've tried adding things to them that seem like they should be there: 

Like adding some of the source in the project to the build path. 

However that breaks thing horribly. 

I have tried from a clean environment to setup things per the instructions:
https://github.com/ceylon/ceylon-dist#building-the-distribution

And then importing the created packages into eclipse. This doesn't appear to set things up correctly. i keeps seeing:

"Some classes are missing from the generated module archives, probably because of an error in the Java backend compilation."

for ceylon-compiler. When I look at the list of missing files, it appears to be all of them.

The second issue seems to be a side effect my my attempt to get eclipse to run the ant target, as a workaround for the first problem.
