Hi,
I downloaded Galileo RC4 (RCP). In the update manager for the Galileo
update site I cannot find Zest or GEF.
Do I have to use a special update site?
Best regards, Lars

The GEF SDK 3.5 would be a lot easier to find if (a) the web pages for the
old update sites contained a pointer to the current one; (b) The GEF SDK
was not 'uncategorized' and therefore could be found in the "Install New
Software" tool without unchecking the "Group Items by Category" box.
Of course like most ease of use issues, once one knows how to do it, it
*is* easy. But with the accretion of this and so many other little
must-know items, Eclipse is slowly becoming hard to use. I speak as
someone who has been using Eclipse since its earliest releases. Each
development team can make decisions that make sense to them, like the one
that hides the "uncategorized" category, or the one that led the GEF team
not to categorize their SDK, but the result is a net reduction in
usability.
Sorry that my first posting to this group is a complaint.
Alan
