Hi Leon,
yes, the module is in the CVS (parts in main trunk, parts in meta_2 
branch, parts in looks_jul_2002_private branch). Currently we have 3 
major milestones. First one is to finish the Java module's integration 
with MDR (the result is java module integrated with MDR and fully 
backward compatible with the current java module) - this phase is almost 
finished (we are now debugging the code). Second milestone is JavaOne 
where we want to have some very basic refactoring functionality (rename 
class/method/field). Then in the third phase we will need to integrate 
the java module with currently developed projects system for NetBeans 
and build advanced refactoring features. The result should be released 
in NB 4.0 (but things are changing quite frequently these days so I 
cannot guarantee it).
