Hi all,

I've been using Visual Studio Code for most of my OpenJDK development 
needs for quite some time now, and grown very fond of it. A year ago or 
so, I wrote a plugin to support me in my daily tasks. It is available here:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=magicus.openjdk-devel

After a year of testing, I think it has proven its worth (to me, at 
least), and I feel ready to recommend it to my fellow developers. The 
plugin currently gives you a separate view with Github integration, 
showing your notifications for OpenJDK projects, your personal PRs, and 
open PRs for a set of chosen tags (i.e. areas you want to watch).

My initial idea was to add support for JBS integration as well, but that 
part is stalled until our Jira instance gets proper support for access 
tokens. :-(

If you have suggestions or improvements, feel free to open an issue or 
PR here:
https://github.com/magicus/vscode-openjdk-devel
