I've been using 3.0 M7 and 3.0 M8 for some time now, and haven't had any 
problems. Occasionally, it seems the first time I do a search on some 
Java member, it comes up with nothing, then if I immediately retry it, 
it finds the hits I was expecting. I haven't played around with it to 
see anything more specific. But the calling/called methods hierarchy 
stuffs are awesome, worth the trip to 3.0, IMO.

I was not a 2.1 user for very long, so I don't know if there was 
anything in 2.1 that substantially changed.
