I am really interested in where the VE is going; especially in regards to
Group Layout (even Spring Layout) both of which are fully supported in
Java 6.
I envy the use of the layouts in Netbeans, but also like the simplicty
that Eclipses VE brings to development.
Thanks for any information.

So no response? I would really like to know from someone on the VE team
where the VE is headed. At this point the "writing on the wall" would
suggest eclipse isn't going to add anything to the VE. It seems as though
2004 was the last major change at all... this is disappointing.
In any case, I would really like to know what we can expect from the VE,
for Swing, in the future.
Thanks.

The Eclipse Foundation does not add things to Eclipse projects. The
Eclipse community does. The purpose of the Foundation is to help
facilitate the organization of the projects. It is up to us, the
members of the community, to make sure that the projects are actively
maintained.
Unfortunately, the original VE developers have moved on and are no
longer supporting the project. There have been a couple of dedicated VE
users who have agreed to try and continue the VE project. I believe
that they are currently working to make VE compatible with Eclipse 3.3
You can check out this page to help track their progress.

The best way you can make sure that features are added to VE is to
volunteer your time and contribute them yourself or offer to help in
other ways so that other team members can contribute the features.
