There's a discussion going on in the MyEclipse discussion forums about adding Tapestry support to MyEclipse. I haven't used MyEclipse, but I've heard of it ... it's a collection of Eclipse plugins to support J2EE development and supports a number of standards and tools, such as JSF and Hibernate.
Now, MyEclipse is inexpensive (it's based on an annual subscription, which is a fun idea), but it is proprietary and Spindle is free ... but I can't help thiking that an improved/integrated Spindle as part of MyEclipse would be a good thing, and may help offload some of Geoff's vast effort with maintaining and extending Spindle (especially if some improvements worked backwards into Spindle). I can't wait for Geoff to weigh in on this.

MyEclipse certainly gets my vote. I introduced MyEclipse to my corporate development team at my former employer and witnessed a huge increase in productivity. While you can certainly get the job done with other plugins or tools, MyEclipse does a nice job integrating the pieces.
+1 for MyEclipse adding Tapestry features.
While I certainly want Spindle to remain a free plugin, I would love to see the Spindle editors merged with the great MyEclipse editors. Currently I need to use "open with..." to switch between the various competing editors for each file extension.
Adding Tapestry support to MyEclipse could go a long way toward boosting Tapestry's popularity :)
