 		On June 24 and June 28, the Eclipse Foundation presented Helios In Action - a virtual
       	conference where attendees could interact with project leads involved in the release and see
       	demos of the new features. The annual simultaneous release has now grown to 39 projects
       	with over 33 million lines of code, contributed by committers around the world.  With such
       	a large global community, this is our way of bringing Helios to you!

 			With the advent of Web 2.0, JavaScript have become central in the creation of a richer user

 			handlers to the creation of complex Web Application frameworks. Such complexity made it crucial
 			that a more sophisticated set of tools become available on Eclipse.
 			<br><br>
 			JSDT's goal is to develop an IDE for JavaScript applications, with full support for editing, search,
 			and refactoring. The functionality of the JavaScript Development Tools is heavily based on the
 			functionality of the Java Development Tools, but since JavaScript is not a fully typed or
 			class-based language, it is not possible to provide 100% of the JDT functionality. JSDT is
 			extensible in that it can be (is) plugged into the HTML and JSP editors within WTP as well as being
 			architected with pluggable type inference and completion proposals in mind. The inference engine is
 			used to determine type and class structures from the JavaScript code, enabling as much of the JDT
 			equivalent functionality as possible, while still allowing adopters to contribute to the process for
 			atypical or extended scenarios.
