Well, I too was trying to figure out the state of the world. I have a set that I'm testing, but I'm nervous because I have no clue what happened this morning. I thought the VMI change had no relation to solving the CC breakage, because I thought the VMI change was simply to remove the ambiguity in the API that surfaced when Ollie assumed something which wasn't clear, and Gregory fixed it....
To clarify the situation around VMI, Gregory's fix was not fully correct: it initialized bootstrapClassPath = NULL for the first iteration so accessibility.jar (or whateevr goes #1 in the bootstrap.properties) was never added to BCP, causing those swing & eclipse failures. Thus if your snap is taken before [r487009], it may be not good.
So I'll do more testing on those snaps tonight, get them out there for people to eval and vote and, and then put on site and move forward. I haven't been able to look at the JTabbedPane() bug that was pointed out, and I still think it's there. Did anyone get a chance to look at it? geir
