Re: [ve-dev] VE 1.5 development plan

Hello,

Well i think support for group layout will be nice. Since it allows free editing that makes life easy when making something simple. (And it will also help the project stand better against Netbeans).

Also there is a task bar item that appears for the window that ve uses for screen scrape it should be hidden.

Although the best change would be making the ve run in one vm and getting rid of the screen scraping. basically making it like all other editors. (The reason for this it runs much faster and allows instant feedback) but such a thing will probably require almost a complete recode :P).

Support for other stuff to edit than Java will be good since it will make the ve a generic editor for all visual things in eclipse but perhaps you should be perfecting Java editing first?

I'd recommended you check the bug tracker to, the bugs have probably been pilling up after the huge period of complete inactivity.

You can also always look at other editors to see what they have that the ve doesn't, to get ideas for what to do. 

Sorry if i wrote to much i just really wish for eclipse to have an active GUI designer project, its the only thing that even disturbed me about Eclipse.

Have you set a date for the 1.4.0 release? There needs to be a release
review (complete with slideware that no one will read) and schedule a
call (that no one will attend) in order to be able to release a 1.4.0
R GA build.

Once that's done, you can decide if you want to / need to do 1.4.x
maintenance or just continue in HEAD working on 1.5.0.
