I thought I should mention here that gdb-ui is a major turn-on for
newbies. For the past few months I've several times seen people
exposed to Emacs for the first time who were very impressed by the
gdb-ui features and told me this one package is worth for them the
effort of learning to use Emacs in general and its debugger interface
in particular.
Good job, Nick!
(Speedbar is another turn-on, btw.)

There has been little feedback has been over the last year or so, and I've not
been sure if thats because people like it as it is, or because they don't like
it and therefore don't use it. So thanks for sharing your experiences.

More likely because they are taking it for granted. It is an "oh,
Emacs does this now" thing. Nothing to write home about unless it
does not work.
