However, I beg you to not remove the possibility to generate project and workspace files for Code::Blocks.
A late-comer in the FOSS arena , I am just now discovering it's usefulness. (I don't even have the newer IDE's you all seem to favor.) If you haven't the time to maintain it, consider chucking it my way. I'll do my best (after I get to understand it) to keep it in shape. My argument for Codeblocks support is based on *source availability*. While it may not have all the bells and whistles of full-blown commercial products like VS2oo5/2oo8, it is open source, with has obvious benefits. VS may be fancy, but we *do not have the source for it*. I'm still trying to get to grips with a project as complex as ROS, and I find the ability to work with it as a CB workspace/projects superlatively useful, even if it loads a bit slowly. ROS is an open source project, built with an open source compiler, and removing support for a very good open source IDE would be a tragic mistake IMHO.
