There's talk of opening Netbeans (at least by Sun), they can ask for the code and re-integrate it and quite possibly give back to the community. There's no reason that if you like a feature you can't work on it yourself, quite honestly it can be worked on now via plugins but I maybe a bit far-reaching in my comments. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
