Chaps,

I know there are both Eclipse users and Java developers on this list.
Apparantly GCJ (the Linux native Java compiler in the GCC suite) can now
do a native build of the Eclipse IDE using Gtk2.  What does this mean -
well, it get's around the startup time problems and increases
performance generally, and also means that the GUI fits more naturally
into a Gnome desktop environment.

Red hat users can get RPM's.. everyone else should probably start with
the story on Slashdot, here :
