Hi Ralph,

there is a list that is much more actively discussing Netbeans
development at
'Nabble' - http://www.nabble.com/Netbeans.org-f2602.html  I'd suggest
you
post there.

Thanks for the 'heads up'.  On the face of it the UML designer looks
good - we will
now be cautious in introducing it.  It might be worth checking to see
if some of the
problems that you identify have been fixed in version 6.0, which is now
in full release.

Hello!

We have a course called Object orientated Analysis and Design. (OAD)
We where recommended to use Netbeans as our UML Modeller.
I love Netbeans and was very happy about this recommendation.
The Problem is that the UML Plugin has so many bugs and missing
Features.
(No Undo/Redo, No Teamwork Support, No Copy/Paste between Projects, Low
printing
resolution, SVG export doesn't work correctly, Elements disappearing
without beeing deleted)
So every student who has taken this course now hates Netbeans at all.
If you speak German you can read the oad and the flames newsgroup on
news.tugraz.at.
I think this is not a good situation. Now everybody is going back to
Eclipse.
I would remove the UML pack until it is stable.

With kind regards

Ralph
