On the dicier side, there's a good chance we're going to transition our front ends to EclipseRCP/SWT at some point in the next 6 months, so how well JOGL2 works in that environment is a big factor in the timing of this transition.  I saw Wade has posted a few blurbs on this and I will be giving those a look shortly.

I've spent the last several years using JOGL 1.1.1a in a big RCP app at work, so feel free to ping me if you have any questions. My blog entries at http://wadeawalker.wordpress.com/ show how to set up a JOGL 2 RCP app in a similar way. And if you guys develop in Eclipse, https://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Building_JOGL_in_Eclipse walks you through the process of building JOGL 2 in Eclipse.

I've had some success building the SWT GLCanvas from source at home, so I may be able to contribute patches to help the integration with JOGL 2. Let me know if you guys run into any bugs in this area. Right now I'm looking at fixing multisampling on Windows, since that seems to be the best-known outstanding bug.
