We are pleased to announce that Google is donating all of the source
code and IP for two products to the open source community.
WindowBuilder™ Pro, the leading Eclipse Java GUI Designer, and CodePro
Profiler™, which identifies Java code performance issues, will be
donated in their entirety to the non-profit Eclipse Foundation.

Both products will become new Eclipse projects in the first half of
2011. Once each one is set up as a project and available for download
from the Eclipse site, the products will be accessible to use as open
source code under the Eclipse standard license. Commercial support for
both products will continue to be available through third-party
vendors.

To learn more, please refer to the following:

Sincerely,
The Google Developer Tools Team
