I pulled down the j2g trunk last night in an attempt to look at the issues
raised by Ted Kirby about compile failures.  When I built this, I found that
the status information provided when downloading Eclipse and other
prerequisites had changed.  It used to display the total file size, plus how
much had already been downloaded.  I think it might have also showed the
transfer speed but I'm not sure.  Either way, now the status is conveyed by
means of dots.  I didn't find this especially helpful, especially when it
started downloaded the eclipse sdk and my entire terminal history became
full of dots.  Was this an explcit change by someone or is it a result of
being moved out of sandbox into devtools?  Could it be changed back?  I
found the old information more useful.  Anyone else have any thoughts on the
issue?

Thanks,

Jason Warner
