On the page above, the following enhancements are listed:
Add tooltips for rule references
Finally fixed the navigator update bug
Major improvements to code completion
Fix legacy mode
Many performance and stability updates
I've blogged before about how the developers on the above project consider their code completion to be "scary fast". Some discussions have taken place about how code developed by the ANTLRWorks team could be contributed to the NetBeans project, since NetBeans IDE and ANTLRWorks 2 are both based on the NetBeans Platform.
