Re: [Springframework-developer] Road map

[Keith D. <kd...@cs...>]

Colin,

When do you think you'll be moving to the client-side?  It'd be great to
work together.  I have a similiar requirement: I need RCP in my current
project, so I will be nicely aligned for developing the module over the
coming months.  It would be great if you could be an early adopter and
developer at the same time...

If you decide to go Eclipse RCP that would be good, too.  The main upside=
 I
think we can offer is better Swing support (Swing is more mature than SWT=
,
and obviously a standard) and a nice integration with the rest of Spring.
But having an Eclipse expert would be invaluable for improving our platfo=
rm
capabilities.  I'd also be interested in seeing if there are ways we can
integrate with the Eclipse effort as it matures, too.

Keith
