Are you having troubles with CFEclipse?

Then let someone know. I've seen a few blogs over the last year or two like Michael Sharman's that detail issues with CFEclipse, explaining why it just doesn't work for them and generally ends with something like "back to [insert homesite or dreamweaver here] for me".

I know that when I see a blog entry like this before even posting a comment the first thing I do is check out the mailing list to see if they have left a thread there explaining their issues. Most of the time I don't find a post and there lies the rub. Needless to say though that without finding out why they have a bug or how to fix it they just post a blog entry on how CFE just "doesn't work". This isn't the first time this has happened and probably won't be the last.

Mark, Thanks for the post, it is good to be reminded on occasion that CFE is constantly in a state of progress. I use CFEclipse daily for the last 8 months (came over from DW and have hardly looked back) and there are a couple of little things that bug me but I had attributed them to my usage and not a bug. I also had not considered helping out as I didn't think there may be areas where I might be of use.
I will start to pay attention to those items which give me issues and look to see if they are known or can be resolved with updates.
Thanks for the resources and getting me to think about the IDE as a project and not a piece of software!

Andy, I am sorry - I was just talking with my friend Mark on the phone while I was writing that and spaced out.
