OK, OpenSolaris is being dropped, but NetBeans?!? Take a look at the timeline: http://netbeans.org/community/releases/roadmap.html Never ever have been new versions of NetBeans released more frequently than now - basically every 3 to 6 months! Oracle is definitely not dropping everything. That they will drop a few of the products was clear, but NetBeans is definitely not. And also for Java itself a lot of updates have been released recently (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_version_history) The products I use most are (apart from Java): NetBeans, MySQL (5.5 came out in July but I am still using 5.1), VirtualBox, Open Office (3.3 beta already available). - All those are vital! -- Martin Wildam http://www.google.com/profiles/mwildam -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
