I'm looking forward to going back into development, or at least project management, next month. I've been caught up in a lot of administrative responsibilities since the company's work started to pick-up, which was about a year ago. But now one of our partners, Joel Tanangonan, will be joining us full-time. He's a seasoned developer and project manager but also someone with a strong management background and I'm glad he's coming onboard to share in the senior management tasks. We've got some important projects coming up and I'll probably need to take charge of one of the teams or at least closely oversee one.
I'm rusty though, so I've got to brush up on the tools and technologies we've standardized on:
I've got a lot of studying to do. :-) By the way, can anyone recommend a good cheap/free tool for creating class diagrams, generating Java classes from them, and round-tripping the modified Java code back into the class diagrams? Something with good support for concurrent modifications by team members will be a big plus.
Grab a copy of myEclipse which has a plugin for almost every package you mentioned.

There is an existing commercial tool called poseidon that does a round trip reverse engineering from uml to java code (and vise versa). I think they also have a plugin for eclipse.
