This bug refers to rails applications. In netbeans 6.0 beta2 (and all previous versions) there was a node in logical project view called "Vendor". It allowed to browse through all installed rails plugins. In Netbeans 6.0RC1 and Rc2, this node has been removed, which is very very annoying. For plugin developer, this is extremely convenient feature: I still want to stay in logical project view and be able to see installed application plugins, browse/add/edit/delete through plugin files. It is very annoying to switch to files view, each time I need to view/edit a file found in one of the installed plugins. I can't really understand why "Vendor" node was removed... It even was mentioned in netbeans 6.0 documentation, and is visible on screenshots: http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/ruby/getting-started.html (see figure 11)

"vendor" was removed as part of some critical fixes around loadpath management; this is all described here: http://www.nabble.com/Please-test-loadpath-related-stuff-tf4701092s27020.html#a13439045 In 6.0, the load path used for indexing etc. was tied directly to the list of folders shown in the project view which is why it was removed from the view (such that indexing could proceed independently). For 6.1, I have changed this a bit, so I just integrated a fix which restores Vendor to the project views while preserving the other semantics which handles vendor/ specially. Available in build #5670 or later from http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/ruby/ .
Getting rid of 'ui' category. Will use right subcomponent and UI keyword. 'code' when none subcomponent fits.
