    BZ Media, the people that publish SD Times, does an annual Java survey of their readership. Alan Ziechick has published the results of the IDE and Java app server usage questions. Nice to see Eclipse continuing to command a huge lead with 69.6% of the respondents indicating they use Eclipse...

    So Bjorn and I just finished our JavaOne talk on Eclipse Europa. Attendance was good, and we had a lot of great questions after the talk. Last night was the Eclipse party, and I got a chance to catch up with a lot of folks that I hadn’t seen in...

    One of the things we are doing this year at JavaOne is giving away CDs of Eclipse SDK 3.2.3 running on a milestone release of the Apache Harmony project. We ordered 1000 CDs but have already run out. Lots of people are interested in learning more about Harmony and how...
