Hopefully, this leads to better tools for everyone.

I used to read "eclipse" all over the Java sphere on the net but that has pretty much gone away.

But starting with Java 5, Swing (and with the help of the new scripting language in Java 6) has become much more viable solution for cross platform, fast and "pretty" user interfaces.

Now once Sun deals with all the Java Web Start , and the Java Media Framework complaints, We may see a Java renaissance...Edited 2007-01-12 05:16 Fri, 12 Jan 2007 05:14:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (slashdev) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread?201013 http://www.osnews.com/thread?201013 Eclipse meets Netbeans. They integrate the best features of each IDE into a single one.
Netbeans -: The excellent experience right after the install.
Eclipse -: Configurability.

And everyone lived happily ever after.

Can someone explain what exactly would change in Eclipse? This is mostly a business move to me and as such has very little relevance to me personally and/or any eclipse developer. I understand that things might change in say and year or two but there still hasn't been any official announcement as to what changes the JCP membership would bring so what are you guys so ecstatics about?

I have found PHPEclipse to be a great PHP development Environment.

Now if there was just a good WYSIWYG HTML Component so I can use it at work instead of FrontPage.

Why does anyone find it surprising that the Eclipse Foundation would want a voting stake in the various JCP proposals that will shape the future of Java?

This does not significantly affect the future of Eclipse and Netbeans (they will still compete).
