Borland Open Sources JBuilder

jroller.com, linuxintegrators.com, weiqigao.com -> theregister.co.uk

Well, that's news to those of us still hanging onto our copy of Borland JBuilder. Yes, it's expensive, yes there are newer IDE's around, but somehow there are those of us who never did try them out, for various reasons (lack of time, project pressures, familiarity with existing tool, or just sheer laziness).

So, what's next? Especially if it's an old version, and, let's say, due to the DST change, a new JDK *must* be used. Wait to download the latest Eclipse-JBuilder hybrid? I suspect that there'll still be people using the old ones. Saw JB6 at some places, and in one case, JB4 even.
