JXTable with Java 1.6 sorting/filtering
I have uploaded to the incubator modified versions of JXTable and JXTableHeader enabled for Java 1.6 sorting/filtering. I have java version 1.6.0_03. I have removed all references to sorting/filtering from both classes, except for shift-click to remove sorting from a column, and double-click to pack a column. The only additional reference to sorting now in JXTable is a convenience method setSortOrder(), which builds a SortKey and resets the RowSorter. Most of the 'sort' methods in the current JXTable are now available via the RowSorter. Convenience methods could be written for them, but I don't know how many would actually be used. — 

SwingXSet3 ...
... not yet. But just some days ago I stumbled across the fact that SwingSet3 is formally a sub-project of SwingLabs (unbelievabl that it lived there for 14 months without anybody noticing) And it's really cute. One cool part of it is a package named CodeView: it allows to view the code files _and_ highlight pre-tagged labelled snippets _and_ navigate across those. We might consider to switch swinglabs-demos over to use that. Didn't explore yet how much work that would be (nor the legal ramifications, licence looks okay to my naive eyes). — 

[Mac OS X] Drawing directly to NSView
After reading the source of the native .jnilib of JDIC for mac os x, I asked myself why it shouldnt be possible to draw directly into an NSView from Java since it seems to me that the "painters model" is the same. Just have a proxy class in java as subclass of Component or whatever, proxy code inside a jnilib that passes all calls to a native subclass of NSView. Shouldnt that be fairly easy? —
