With Mac OS X I also have no access to the source code of the JDK.
Which makes me wonder again how to do serious Java development with Mac
OS X. I know a few of you guys are using Mac OS X. How do you do it?
Today I have faced the first real barrier: I had to convert a PKCS12
keystore to JKS, which is only possible with JDK 6 (AFAIK), so I had to
use a Windows machine for this task :(

Whenever I start this I get annoyed very fast. The missing Java sources
are only the tip of the iceberg. Every tree representation in Eclipse
just sucks. Keyboard navigation in Mac OS X is completely inconsistent,
especially with Java programs. There seems to be no serious SVN command
line client (or at least the CollabNet download page is just
self-linking at the moment:
http://downloads.open.collab.net/binaries.html). And so on ... Windows
has also bunch of annoying issues but there is at least consistency and
usually there is a solution for everything. Do you guys all switch to
Linux when it comes to Java development? :)
