[ajug-members] favorite IDE

[Justin Meads]

We add our .project and .classpath files to version control.  When we  
pull the project from SVN, it just works.

You can also export/import all of your Eclipse preferences which is  
nice.  In Eclipse choose

  FIle -> Export -> General -> Preferences -> Check Export All ->  
Click Finish

Reverse the process to import into a new workspace.

Regards, Justin
