    Wednesday, November 30, 2005 - 10:22 by Wayne Beaton
    Here is my first attempt at writing a Haiku about Eclipse: Eclipse RCPNot just a window systemComponents are king! I believe that discussing Eclipse is a reasonably good stand-in for the requirement that traditional Haiku have something to do with nature (the Wikipedia says that it’s supposed to be a...

    Phoenix Rises

    Friday, November 25, 2005 - 15:20 by Mike Milinkovich
    We’re getting close to the final countdown for our first release of Phoenix on Nov. 30th. Or, in other words, finally switching the www.eclipse.org home page over to our new look and feel. The look and content have really come together in the last couple weeks and days. There’s nothing...

    I think we can probably all agree that 18 pictures of me putting on the shirt is a little much. However, I think this pretty effectively closes bug# 112631. I am a little concerned that my hair looks just a little goofy; but hopefully that’s more a function of being...

We would all like to get community feedback on the programs we’re currently thinking about. Better yet, I would love to...

    Flip through changed files…

    Thursday, November 17, 2005 - 21:08 by Wayne Beaton
    Here’s a neat and (I believe) completely unintentional feature of Eclipse… If you’ve added your projects to SCM through Eclipse, it will mark changed files (and directories containing changed files) with an arrow (a “greater-than” sign) in the Navigator and Package Explorer.

    Denis took me down to the data centre today to have a gander at the Eclipse server rack. It’s pretty impressive (a little slice of nerd heaven). The rack is very well organized with all the cables neatly ordered. It’s all very well thought out and implemented. We were in...
