NetBeans not ready for Rails 2.0

All,
Just wanted to run my observations by you.
I have tried over the week-end to make NetBeans 6.0, 6.0.1, and 6.1 (dev 200801201200) work with Rails 2.0 and have reached the conclusion that it is too painful and clumsy.  NetBeans 6.0 and 6.0.1 are simply not Rails 2.0 aware, understandably so.  Whereas the 6.1 build mentioned above is too unpredictable.  For example, it spends an enormous amount of time trying to index the Depot application that I have already closed.  Even if it is open, NetBeans 6.0 does it at the speed of light compared to the dev build of 6.1
For time being, until 6.1 stabilizes a bit, I will stay away from trying to work with NetBeans and Rails 2.0.  I must point out that the Tutorial Diva article about working with NetBeans 6.0 and Rails 2.0.2 to create a blog did work, but feels quite clumsy though.  The command line feels better.  NetBeans 6.0 with Rails 1.2.3 which I have with InstantRails 1.7 works quite well and feel good too.
I would like to see how others "feel" about this?  Mind you, it is not a cut-and-dry discussion and different people have different opinions.  The reason for this post is not to start something, but more like to get a response from people who know something I don't and can tell me that I am wrong and here is how it will work well.
Regards,
Bharat
