[gNewSense-users] Tomboy/Netbeans/jdk

[R.Siddharth]

Hi everyone , 
I am planning to make a switch from ubuntu Jaunty to gNewSense 2.2 .
There are few things that I want to know before I erase my existing
OS(s) , Does gNewSense allow Tomboy to be used ?  . Though Tomboy is
under the Gnome project , I have my doubts since it is written in C# and
uses Novell's Mono Rune time Environment  which of late got into some
trouble .  I am also learning  Java and I use Netbeans IDE and open-jdk
for writing programs , is Netbeans and open-jdk accepted in the
gNewSense community  , If no ,  I would like to be made aware of a
alternative  for the IDE and the jdk (java). 

Thanks for your time and help .
