Yes, in a purely technical/usability sense Eclipse is definitely not the best. I still get very frustrated when I see developers using Eclipse and wasting so much energy and time on loads of little things that "just work" in IntelliJ.

If anyone got that itch to scratch, by all means, go ahead! But we will also need a separate lightweight implementation which is JPanel based as well. /Rickard _______________________________________________ qi4j-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ops4j.org/mailman/listinfo/qi4j-dev
