What are the plans for updating Eclipse and IcedTea in F8? Are they going to stay at their current releases, 3.3.0 and -b21, respectively, or will they get updates? Of course, 3.3.1.1 and -b23 are already out.
I ask because I'm running into some crashes with 3.3.0 on -b21. I could try to file bugs, but it seems like a waste of everyone's time to file bugs against old releases.

I can't speak for IcedTea, but 3.3.1.1 would already be available in Fedora if it weren't for stupid ppc64 build issues :( I think I'm almost there, though.

PermGen issues? Try moving eclipse.ini from /usr/share/eclipse to /usr/lib (or lib64)/eclipse and making it look something like this (the last line is key):
-showsplash org.eclipse.platform -vmargs -Xms40m -Xmx256m --XX:MaxPermSize=128m
HTH,

I've added this to my eclipse launcher in the gnome panel
eclipse -vmargs -Xms512m -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Xmx512m
Since then, I've not seen anymore crashes nor problems of any other kind.
Hope that helps, Mario

Yeah, although your options are slightly different, eclipse.ini achieves the same thing. The problem is that the defaults weren't being read because they were in /usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini when they should have been in /usr/lib{64}/eclipse/eclipse.ini. A forthcoming 3.3.1.1 update will fix the defaults.

Realistically speaking, is eclipse-3.3.1.1-10.fc9.src.rpm, which builds successfully on all arches, about to get tagged as an update (or update-testing) for F8? Or is some more work going to happen before an update is possible?

No, I just haven't gotten around to submitting the update :)

Good luck with that. :)
I tried to build from eclipse-3.3.1.1-10.fc9.src.rpm , but then it turned out that a not-yet-released icu4j-eclipse is a prerequisite. So, don't forget to tag that, too!

Thanks for the reminder :) The updated icu4j should be in rawhide, no?
