The community edition looks like really useful, if it’s 1997 and you’ve just bought the first edition of Java Servlet Programming.

Petre, you’re getting an Ultimate Editon license when IntelliJ IDEA 9 is out if you’re going to purchase IntelliJ IDEA 8 now.

I am a Java/J2EE/Groovy/Grails developer and I’d love to use my old buddy the IntelliJ IDEA back at home too, for my own personal training and continuous education. As of now, my focus is on Grails and I’m less than enthusiastically using Netbeans 6.7 for that purpose. Question: What kind of v9 upgrade am I supposed to get on top of my v8 license, the community or the ultimate edition, in exchange for purchasing right away a $249 IDEA v8 personal license? See the following announcement on the JB’s Licesing & Upgrade page @ http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/buy/index.jsp: \All IntelliJ IDEA 8 purchases made on or after October 1, 2009, qualify for a FREE upgrade to IntelliJ IDEA 9\. Sooooo… 4 which one, folks? Thanks!

Why are so many people being so demanding in wanting the web / enterprise features from JetBrains for free while they themselves are unlikely to give away their software/support/time for free? Sometimes it seems that it’s just a step away from asking IntelliJ to actually do their homework/work for them if that’s possible. (Then perhaps the company should hire JetBrains instead. It will be more cost-effective.)

I wish the attitude ‘Let me seize this great opportunity to write my own plug-in / platform / next big thing!’ be more prevalent.

Java world was waiting for this to happen for a long time, but anyway ‘better late than never’. I just wish standard edition had spring support.
Congratulations and thanks for this great gift to community

I have same concerns about the usability of community edition. However it is a just one step to make more. In my opinion, community edition should have same features and be free to universities, non commercial projects.
