Don't usually like complaining but I just want to add to this list to warn people against upgrading just yet.

Since upgrading (this morning!) I've had 3 crashes and counted 2 bugs, one serious in the pin planner where it seems to think (all visual indication to the contrary) that I've assigned multiple outputs to the same pin.

I am not even trying to resolve this, im downloading a copy of 9.1sp2 and just hoping it works with Eclipse 10 since I only upgraded because of problems compiling code for the NIOSII.

I don't know why they've changed the implementation of the GUI. I even recognize from the errors when it crashed what SDK they are using, if im not mistaken its Qt by Nokia. I've used it before and while it abstracts away some of the nasty stuff in GUI programming it introduces just as many idiosyncracies and design problems itself.
