[news.eclipse.newcomer] Visual Editor for Eclipse Version 3.4

[pmh@xxxxxxxxxx (P. Michael Hutchins)]

I'm posting this here (as well), because it appears that everyone in VE 
land has expired.
(and to try to ask anyone ~at this level of Eclipse~ whether you all have 
anything in place whatsoever to handle situations such as this one, where, 
apparently, all work on a ~feature~ just ground to a halt, leaving all the 
Web Pages ancient and useless - and therefore, time wasting)

:

I just spent a while looking around to try to see whether VE(*) is even 
alleged to work with Eclipse Version 3.4(.1)..
(*: or anything like it (ieg: I saw some mumbling about a ~replacement~ 
for it))

.and mostly discovered that nothing related to VE has been updated since 
Callisto was the newest thing out of the pipe.

Have all the VE people expired?

I also saw a note: 
"For Eclipse 3.4, please use Visual Editor 1.4.
Updatesite : http://update.soyatec.org/Ganymede/ve/1.4";

..but when I added the site to my Software Updates and Add-one  / 
Available Software, all I got was: 
"No repository found at http://update.soyatec.org/Ganymede/ve/1.4
             Error reading update site 
http://update.soyatec.org/Ganymede/ve/1.4.
             Connection timed out: connect"

PLEASE, Is there something out there that works, or not?
(& if so, how do I get it, & then get it to work?)


Thanks,
