Today marks the much anticipated release of Eclipse Galileo, or Eclipse 3.5. Once again, it's striking how such a large set of projects across the developer community can coordinate such a big software drop consistently, year after year. Congratulations and much respect is due to the project leads, developers and Eclipse foundation for achieving this.

Really why? No new significant features in years.
This is how NOT to release software if you want to keep users.

That depends on what you consider a signficant feature. The Java IDE itself is pretty mature, but there are some new additions - and there's a lot of new help for plug-in developers.
And the Galileo release is about more than just the IDE - take a look at XText, CDO, ECF, EMF and lots of others for new functionality.

The Eclipse Memory Analyzer alone is significant in my (biased) opinion ;)

Indeed Eclipse Galileo is much much faster than its predecessor.
