- window working set aggregation
- JFace and data binding (new plug-in will be added
to the builds just after M3)
- JFace virtual table bug fixes
- Problems view
        adding
           
    hierarchal

        performance work
- Commands
        Completed code

        Started work on label retargetting
and persistent handler state
        Builds (integrating navigator work,
general milestone mayhem)
- clean up UI CVS permissions
        - please advise
us if anything has gone awry with permissions you should have on UI projects

  (not released to M3) 
- continued work on runtime classpath editing (not released to M3)
- continued work on flexible debug platform in branch
  - prototype implementation of model deltas to drive debug views
  - models will be able to provide a model proxy for specific views

Platform/JDT Text: 
- investigated using binary trees to make position tracking more efficient
- bug fixing and inbox tracking 
- 50% on vacation 

JDT UI: 
- M3 testing 
- refactoring: 
  - polish work for the new Code Cleanup action
  - finished implementation of refactoring history index

    team can be leveraged by refactoring
  - continued work on updated derived members when
    renaming types 
- package explorer: 
  - added support for non Java working sets when in 
    working set mode. Now resource working sets can
    be used as well, if the top level elements of
    the working set are adaptable to IProject
- build path: 
  - added a "Link Source" action to the source page of
    the build path properties page to ease linking 
    additional source 
- new project wizard: 
  - the new project wizard now supports selecting a JDK
