NetBeans.org and BlueJ.org are proud to announce the availability of
NetBeans IDE 5.0 BlueJ Edition.

Download the BlueJ Edition: http://edu.netbeans.org/bluej

This special edition of NetBeans IDE is a collaboration between
the NetBeans community and the University of Kent, England. The NetBeans
IDE BlueJ Edition is targeted at teachers and students familiar with the
popular BlueJ tool (http://www.bluej.org). The NetBeans
BlueJ Edition helps you "make the jump" from BlueJ to a full-featured
IDE, either when your projects have grown too big to fit comfortably
into BlueJ, or when you want to use features such as code completion and
drag-and-drop GUI building, which BlueJ doesn't directly support.

To learn more about using BlueJ and NetBeans in education, see
http://edu.netbeans.org/bluej and http://www.bluej.org/netbeans

There is also a short summary of the intentions of this project on
a blog at http://www.bluej.org/mrt/?p=9

Enjoy!
