Re: [orca-list] Eclipse 3.6RC3 seems to be very unstable with orca

Hi Michael
I am using eclipse 3.6 rc3 on my day job without big problems.
What distro are you using?
What version of orca?
What java VM?

In my opinion this is the more stable version of Eclipse that I've used 
with the orca.

Thanks.
