I just wanted to say *thank you* – you’ve made another satisfied customer. You’ve done for Eclipse what needed to be done; created a very solid, stable, robust IDE for J2EE development!
I’ve tried IntelliJ, JBuilder, Netbeans, and Eclipse+webtools and was not happy w/ any of them. I love the ecilpse editor the best since it was the closest experience to VS.NET I could find in the Java world but the Webtools were a complete disaster for me. I’ve been using Netbeans for about a year and after using MyEclipse 4.1 – there’s absolutely no going back!
One complaint: I use both Windows and Linux on the desktop. As a consultant (moonlighting) I use strictly Linux on a laptop and a workstation of my own. I really, really wish the visual editors worked on Linux (GTK)…that was a bit disappointing. I edit in the HTML directly, more often than not…but I love the visual designer having used it on Windows.
Overall, excellent work at a very fair price…you’ve got my recommendation!

V. Jenks,
Thank you very much for the kind words, it is always nice for the team to hear compliments. That motivates us to work harder and impress more users.As far as the designer is concerned, it seems to the users like nothing is happening on the alternative platforms because we’ve been saying we would deliver it for months, but I do have to say that the reason it is taking so long is because our original intent was a quick and easy port of a simplified designer, but as we looked into it we realized that what we really need to do as our customer based grew from a 5%-8% non-Windows base to an almost 20% non windows user base is design a cross platform designer that is going to serve everyone’s needs on all platforms. This work is far from small, so it may be a while before the designer is on all platforms but it will get there.
In the mean time we hope you like all the new features we pack into each release 😉
