Mark Wielaard: New GPG key.
Finally created a new GPG key using gnupg. The old one was a DSA/1024 bits one and 8 years old. The new one is a RSA/2048 bits one. I will use the new one in the future to sign any release tarballs I might create. pub 2048R/57816A6A 2011-01-29 Key f...

Screenshot of the Week #28: NetBeans + JavaScript = True!
Apologies for my low activity on this blog recently. I've been swamped during the NetBeans 6.1 development cycle.
The main reason is that I've been completely consumed reimplementing the JavaScript support in NetBeans. It is
now built on the same infrastructure as the Ruby editor. It's been quite a sprint to get it done, but we're
about to freeze NetBeans 6.1, and it's in. And I think NetBeans now compares quite favorably against other JavaScript
IDEs and editors.
Does this mean I've moved on from Ruby, and the NetBeans Ruby support is now in maintenance mode?
Far from it! Not only did we double the size of the NetBeans Ruby team from 6.0 (when Martin Krauskopf and myself
were the team); in 6.1 Erno Mononen and Peter Williams joined us. And I'm still in charge of and working on the
Ruby editor - which in 6.1 adds complete Rails 2.0 support (and Rails 2.1 - I just yesterday integrated support
for the new UTC timestamp migrations), as well as
a bunch of new quickfixes, and tasklist integration, etc.
However, a lot of the work I've been doing has been on the editing infrastructure, which benefits
Ruby directly. For example, in NetBeans 6.1, the long file indexing process which would happen on every IDE startup
now happens only on the first startup. And more importantly, we're much more robust now in handling complicated
embedding scenarios in ERb/RHTML files. Where in 6.0 we had a lot of custom code to handle ERb specifically...
