According to this
article jEdit is included in Sun's Java Desktop System (or at least in the demo version). Which is actually a reworked and rebadged SuSE Linux distribution.

jEdit 4.2pre6 is
now available. While this is mostly a bug fix release, it has a few nice new features too, like C+b that completes from all visible buffers, and auto-detection of a buffer's encoding if an XML encoding processing instruction is present. A
full changelog is available.

All in all the code was a real pleasure to work with and the resulting library dropped right into my project. My project is also GPL'd so if anyone would like to take a look at the resulting code it can be found

Native JDK 1.4.2 now available for FreeBSD

A native JDK 1.4.2 for FreeBSD has been released. Right now it is only available in source form, so you'll have to compile it from the ports collection yourself. It seems to start faster than the native JDK 1.4.1; I'll have to wait and see to be able to say if it's any more stable (the native 1.4.1p3 and 1.4.1p4 were a bit buggy.)

Switching to Drupal
Submitted by

I've found a replacement for PostNuke called
Drupal which is vastly superior. It may take a few weeks to get everything ported over, but the old version will remain until the new version is fully ready to go. You can check out the new version
here.

Now using drupal

So we're now using drupal. Users, stories and links have been moved over. So many downloads were broken that we're just going to start from scratch with those. Everyone should submit useful files to the new downloads section. You can still get files from the
old version of the site.
Some differences in drupal: You have a menu whose title is your user name. This menu lets you do lots of different things. In particular, it has a 'Create content' submenu where you can submit files, stories, links, polls or post in the forums.
Also important is the 'view submissions' item.
Reload Plugin Ant Task (jedit-ant-tasks.tar.gz v0.3 by Robert Fletcher)
Submitted by

Tuesday, 16 December, 2003 - 09:53
An Ant task that can reload a jEdit 4.2 plugin. This task can be used in plugin build.xml files to save repeatedly opening & closing the Plugin Manager. This version is aware of dependent plugins and by default also reloads them. The task can be used from within jEdit (for example, by using AntFarm), but is safe to include in build.xml files that may be used elsewhere (it will simply do nothing if jEdit is not available).
LazyFolds plugin (LazyFolds.jar v0.3 by Robert Fletcher)
Submitted by

Tuesday, 16 December, 2003 - 10:24
A plugin that can automatically add explicit folds around certain constructs in a jEdit buffer. Rules for finding where to place folds and defining what text to include with the fold marker are defined in an XML file for each edit mode. The user can add XML rules files to their ~/.jedit/lazyfolds/ directory. The plugin has default rules for Java and JavaScript which can be used as a guide for how to build new rules files. Now supports Java 1.5 syntax

Ant Helper macros (Ant_Helper_Macros.tar.gz v1.0 by Robert Fletcher)

4 simple macros that run the A,B,C,D targets in AntHelper but also force the AntFarm dockable window to stay closed. These are ideal for binding to shortcuts enabling you to work quickly without having a dockable you don't need to use popping up all the time.
