Eclipse 3.0 RC2

I had been using Eclipse 3.0 RC1 for the past week but it was sluggish and I ran into a few hangups, so when I saw that Eclipse 3.0 RC2 was available, I got right on it.  Definitely better.  Startup is faster and shutdown takes only a second.  Nice.  I think I'll stick with this one until the final release is out which is due end of this month.  Eclipse bug count looks healthy although Platform UI and SWT team seems to be struggling a bit.

Downloading Eclipse took forever btw.  They have mirrors but mirrors are troublesome to use because it forces the user to find the package among the mirrors to download.  They should use BitTorrent IMHO and turn the mirrors into seeds.  BitTorrent needs to be more location-aware (actually route-aware) though.
