Packages are good because they provide a nice starting point for the user since they aggregate the most common features together (e.g. Java or Java EE). I think we could improve the situation by: - Getting rid of some of the obscure / too narrow focused packages. - On first start, prompt the

A frequent complaint is that Eclipse contains too many things for usage, so many UI entries make usage more complicated and confusing. I can imagine that people doing some GMF stuff really don't want WTP at all because it introduce a lot of new menus, so a GMF user which is used to the Modeling

One of the three nodes had hung itself. Oddly, our load balancer was seeing it as dead but insisted on still sending some connections to it. We'll look into it. I brought the dead node back to life a couple of hours ago. Denis On 07/30/2013 06:19 AM, Wim Jongman wrote: Connection

I am not sure about the disaster thing really. As we are also having the discussion about other IDE's look at IntelliJ just for a second (http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/index.html) They have 2 downloads. One that is free and one that is everything. That makes it at least very simple

Are you sure that “Ultimate” actually means everything? To me the difference is free vs non free. I think the problem of today’s download page is that it forces you to ask yourself too many questions. I’m primarily a Java developer so if there was no other choice I would naturally download the

As an alternative we could replace Standard with an Ultimate Java Edition (including J2EE, WTP, RCP, Modeling) and see what the download numbers are next year. See I totally agree that are places where you want to specialize. My only problem that we are discussing this among ~ 1000 eclipse

Just to close the loop on this -- the issue was caused by our load balancer's keepalive mechanism, which was set to tcp. Since the kernel-based tcp stack generally keeps functioning even when a server hangs itself from an Out Of Memory condition, the load balancer still sees the server as

IntelliJ has 2 editions (free and ultimate), NetBeans has 5 edition (Java SE, Java EE, C/C++, PHP and All), even Microsoft, the king of too many product editions, has 8 editions of Visual Studio. Eclipse has 12 with one more on the way, and that's just the packages available from eclipse.org.
