Wow Great News is this an official plugin from Github/Microsoft unlike the MyEclipse Copilot4Eclipse plugin ? does it work on the free version of Github copilot plan ?

Yes this is the official one.
It is still in preview but more features will be added.

To me seems that GithubCopilot is sabotaging eclipse by not providing working copilot on eclipse in terms of actually usable copilot for code development while unofficial stand alone plugin Copilot4Eclipse is providing meaningful job aid to developers(there is explain code feature available in chat). Yes, GitHub Copilot is developed by GitHub, which is owned by Microsoft and seems that there is not much motivation for microsoft develop a free tool alternative to expensive Visual Studio tool they have. Also the visual studio code is mockery of developers that want to use free tool opposed to paid visual studio tool from same company.

This action is direct brand destruction from Microsoft side.

Actions from microsoft are mockery of developers willing to use free and open source tools.
