Joe Thanks. I think the original question was of the form "I have problem X and the solution is Y". Sometimes, the proper response is "problem X is solved by doing Z", where Y and Z are quite different. This just seems to me to be the core of the workspace/script issue, and I responded accordingly. But you should know that we take the issues that were discussed seriously. For example, a lot of work has been done recently on packaging and distributing addons (user contributions) and the base library. A few months ago, getting any addons or library updates was a tedious process, for both developer and end user. Now, the whole process is largely automated. You can access your addon in Project Manager, make changes, click a button in the new SVN dialog in PM to commit, the addon is built automatically on the server, and is immediately available to the end user. In general, PM and its updates/replacements etc, is an important part of the IDE. There are lots of improvements we can make, in particular to make building a simple application completely trivial - an issue that you raised earlier, and which I believe is your main concern.
