[OKC JUG] Fwd: [nbdev] NetBeans IDE 6.8 Now Available for Download!

[Les Martin]

In case any of you aren't keeping up with it or maybe to just strike
interest the below message introduces the latest release in the rapid
development cycle of NetBeans.

I haven't used it much, but it's free AND it is very feature rich (even
Groovy/Grails/Griffon support).

regards
Les

 The NetBeans team is proud to announce the availability of NetBeans IDE
6.8!

   - *Download NetBeans IDE 6.8* <http://netbeans.org/downloads/index.html>

NetBeans IDE 6.8 offers best-in-class support for the entire Java EE 6
specification and the GlassFish Enterprise Server v3 platform. Simplify Java
application development with Java EE 6 language features: less XML
configuration and more POJO-like development; easily target and deploy to
GlassFish v3.

NetBeans IDE continues to be the tool of choice for top development
languages; this release includes new features and improved support for PHP
5.3 and the Symfony framework, the latest JavaFX SDK 1.2.1, C/C++, Ruby,
Maven and more. Integration with Project Kenai, a collaborative environment
for hosting open-source projects, now offers full support for JIRA, as well
as improved issue tracker integration. And as always, the NetBeans Platform
provides a rock-solid application framework that can save years of
development time.

Supporting Java EE 6 improvements first, NetBeans IDE 6.8 boosts developer
productivity and lets developers take advantage of today's latest language
and platform features.
