Re: [eclipse.org-architecture-council] FindBugs

[David Carver <d_a_carver@xxxxxxxxx>]

I use it from time to time and find that it is pretty decent.  There are 
times that you have to spend tweaking some of the suggestions and 
findings as it will return false negatives.  But for the most part it 
runs unintrusively.     Would probably be an easier sell to projects at 
eclipse if it was itself an Eclipse project.
