For the fifth time, the NetBeans Software Day was held as a soft start to JavaOne. In the opening keynote, Jonathan Schwartz and Rich Green got a question about how they wanted to address the competition from Eclipse. They answered that without Eclipse, NetBeans would not be were it is today, and vice versa. Competition is good and no developer would ever say “I only need one tool….”.

I also attended a presentation of Swing Application Framework, Beans Binding and some other cool stuff upcoming in NetBeans 6.0. If you have not tried out NetBeans yet…try it out!

Back in San Francisco! This year is my eight time at the conference, so it is starting to look like a tradition to me. An addition this year is that the airline company missed to bring my luggage, but it will hopefully come during the day…or so they say…

I am kind of jetlagged now, but I hope I will not promise to much by saying that I hope to be able to post something at least once a day during the conference.
