First, "Donald Dunne" is listed for the CalendarCombo widget, which is
wrong as it's my widget. More on this widget below.

Personally, the GANTT widget is the only widget I would like to bring
forward and further as far as development goes. The Collapsible Buttons
widget is fine as it is, it doesn't need more features nor does it really
have issues apart from people having a bit of a hard time making it work as
intended (as it needs to be "pushed" into place GUI-wise). I consider it
stable but I don't think many people use it. As far as some recent issues
reported with the GANTT chart, most open bugs are requests for new
features.

CalendarCombo has been getting more and more troublesome across platforms
as more and more platforms change their API. Especially OS/X (and Linux)
has been an issue lately causing the combo not to work at all, so it can
either stay where it is or get dropped from Nebula as it has a very hard
time to follow the "cross-platformness" of SWT widgets in general and
despite my best attempts there's no way of making it work without (A). The
widget stealing focus (not stealing focus was the whole point of the widget
in the first place) or (B) Using native API calls. It's a very old widget
so perhaps it's better that way as it clearly can't keep up. If it's ok for
it to live as a Windows-only widget then it can also stay where it is.

Hope that clears up my widgets and the status of them.
