I’ve gotten really tired of Eclipse pooping up my Maven projects. Like seriously bringing the buttstain. I’ve loved Eclipse ever since I started using it back in my time with the EVIADA project. I wrote a good bit of the UI for the Annotator’s Workbench using Eclipse.

I’ve used it ever since then too, even if the vi key bindings thing in the editor has never gone well. I’d been holding out for the Indigo release but the last week has seen me “reboot” my workspace twice already. When I code for fun, I want to code…not fight with an IDE.

But no more. Tonight I’m setting up a NetBeans environment. Damn the consequences! Hopefully the culture shock is not too great.
