Is PHPEclipse still developed? Nothing seems to happen on their homepage though.

Their homepage is a mess and has been neglected for a long time. But look at their Trac project (http://dev.phpeclipse.com) - there's quite some work going on. Yes, they missed their Milestone goals, but finally they seem to be really low on manpower. Seems like some three or four more active developers would make a difference.


Even if PHPEclipse is far behind. Fact is, that PHPEclipse is a truly open source project: Open code + open process (see http://pooteeweet.org/blog/348 for an interesting write-up on this). One is more forgiving towards temporary weaknesses of a community driven project, because one knows that in the end he's getting more value.

I'm gonna be waiting for the Zend team to respond to my "Wake up call". If things don't change for the better here, I'll reconsider PHPEclipse.
