An Oracle official states Oracle position regarding development tools:
- NetBeans will continue with strong Java focus and more resources. Other languages will be transferred to (supported) community.
Though the primary Java development tool (for RIA) is JDeveloper. - NetBeans will remain free.
- Eclipse will be supported too.
- Hudson continuous integration server will be moved forward with power:
"... Increase the investment in Hudson, lots of synergy with Team Productivity Center. ..."
It's an important clarification after the Sun acquisition.
Another point is the Hudson value. It is recognized as a similar importance tool as major IDEs. And Oracle has ambiguous plans regarding to Hudson.
