What is the status of this project? [message #145265] Tue, 15 July 2008 01:08 Go to next message

If there is anyone actively working on this project, can you PLEASE supply
a status report?

Is the apparent lack of progress due to lack of developers or is there
some basic design problem?

How much effort is required to produce a version for Ganymede?

Is this project in danger of expiring or is it already dead?

I consider Visual Editor to be a vital component for Java Development
under Eclipse. There appears to be no other viable (non-commercial) option.

I think that a lot of users would like to know what the current situation
is.

Cheers
Russell

The project has died Tue, 30 Jan 2007 -- 11:17

Maybe it can be reanimated.

So do I.
I used Eclipse for some small Amateur projects. I still use Version 3.2 for
my old projects. For newer projects I went over to Netbeans, because I need
a visual editor for Java Programming. I think the non-Amateurs will get a
commercial visual editor or they don't need one.
I still use Eclipse for php-Projects.

Yes, I'm one of them.

You can try to use the 3.4RC2 build.

I'm not on the VE team so I can't answer exactly answer any of your other
questions.
