JBlogEditor on SourceForge

JBlogeditor is a Blog Editor based on Eclipse RCP and its source has just been published on sourceforge. See the authors announcement for more details.
The next Version (0.7) will be released under EPL and i'm really looking forward to it. If it can be used as an eclipse 3.2 plugin and integrates nicely, i'm going to prefer it instead of bloggers webinterface.

ps. spread the word

more news

the good:
I'm finally back on a 'broadband' connection at home. For the last 2 years i've been stuck on 64kbit up/down. This monday i finally got an adsl connection with 384kbit down and 128kbit up. This might be another motivation for me to post a bit more.

the bad:
In my last post i said i'd have more time to spare. Seems i was wrong. I'm even more busy than i was before.

the ugly:
I ordered new workstation components a few weeks ago. But either the mobo or the cpu is broken, so i have to rma one, but how to find out the right one without replacement hardware to test it. *sigh*

the eclipseish:
Despite my bad luck with the other hardware, my new TFT (Samsung 204Ts 20" tft with 1600x1200 native) works like a charm and eclipse is just different. No more customize perspective fiddling, view closing, frequent maximize minimize... I don't know how i could live with a 17" crt before :).
So if you feel theres not enough space on your screen for eclipse, get a bigger one, its really worth it.
