NetBeans 6.0 is out and about
I'm breaking the silence for this heads-up:
NetBeans 6.0 is completed and released, and can be downloaded from the NetBeans site.
There are big changes to the Mobility package, so beware if you are in the middle of a project and you try to migrate to 6.0. I advice you to try it on a non-critical or completely new project first, especially if you use Visual Designer, as it's both visually and functionally quite different from before, and after porting my current project I got lots of compilation errors. I didn't analyze it further though. I just concluded I can't risk this project now.
The Analyzer function is welcome, as you didn't even get a warning if there were unused resources before.
There's also Game Builder and SVG Composer, so it's a big step forward.
Here's about the new features in the Mobility package.
