The roadmap pages haven't been updated for a while. Would anyone know the status of PDT - teams, development, future plans? If there is a stall or change in organization, maybe someone can let the community know so others can join the project if help is needed.
Thanks for the all the work.

Hum, that's a bit of a shame really.
I have been looking after my site for a few years using nothing more
than Notepad++ but over the past month or so, I have been using PDT.
I would hate to get used to a new tool that is no longer supported.
Having said that I am happy with what it offers now, so even with no
updates I can live with the one or two current bugs, (and work around
the big bugs).
Personally I think that PHPEdit and Zend studio are far too expensive
for what they offer, (I mean, $299 is a bit on the steep side I think).
I don't mind spending a buck or two, but for a week-end developer this
is a bit much.
Can you suggest any other IDE that I could look into?

does PHPEclipse support debugging of php scripts and pages?
