>Yeah probably a little... Nah, I didn't take them that way. Education is completely different from daily work experience, as I'm sure you're well aware. As I previously indicated, we're just a medium sized advertising agency. We don't build CMSes, we don't build enterprise applications. We just build small marketing and promotions web sites. I've never needed tools to "assist in designing" a database, I've always just used Enterprise Manager and built them. I've never needed any high end versioning because there's me, and at most, two other programmers. "Checking out" files is only slightly easier than yelling across the hall, "hey, don't work on that because I'm working on it now". So of course, different strokes for different folks.
So the question didn't originate from an "education" point of view, it just came from a practical experience point of view. I haven't ever needed to use a framework with the relatively light programming I do, so like anyone in my position, you always look for ways to make your life easier and make your programming tighter and better, and with all the talk about frameworks lately, you start to think, "hey, maybe there's something to this, I wonder if it would work in our case?" After all this discussion, it's become obvious to me that we're probably just fine building applications the way we're building them, and CS3 will work well with the system of we have in place, especially being so tightly integrated with a full blown art production department that we rely on so heavily. So nah. I can see how Eclipse would be pretty cool and useful and all that, and perhaps, if we somehow manage to land a client that requires a "heavier" website than we normally provide we'd take a look at them, but I'm pretty sure we're chugging along fine. I do appreciate the Eclipse soapbox though. It's nice to see people as passionate about that stuff as I suppose I am about Dreamweaver. Nice reply.
