I agree!
Thanks for the comment Angad,
I have updated to 6.1 and am excited. I am watching the PHP support very closely waiting for it to become installable in the regular NB release (it appears that you can only get it if you download the special PHP early access version of the IDE). Also I saw that Sun has made some investments into Python and hope that we will soon see results from that show up in netbeans community.
I also want to point out that Sun has certified OpenJDK and Glassfish on Ubuntu 8.04 server so that it should be very easy to deploy java web applications to Ubuntu server. My brother and I will be putting this to the test soon.
It looks like glassfish and java installation is as simple as:
sudo apt-get install glassfishv2
Which if so, should make Ubuntu Server the easiest to configure entirely free Linux based Java application server. I realize some commercial distros include Java and an application server, but for a completely free/oss solution single step installation looks pretty slick.
