Many people seem to think so and I must say I 'm confused as to "why"...
Mind telling us why you thought the project had stalled?
I mean, the main site has a prominent link to the nightly builds on the main page, right next to the link to the last stable build.
The forums are also hyper-active ;).
Any insight of your thoughts will be very helpful. Thanks :).

Ok, but in wich format are new files created from within Code::Blocks (File->New->Empty File)?

Mostly force of habbit I think. I used to just skim the bit that says "Latest official release:". Though, I've been using nightly's for many months now. Maybe it was'nt so obvious in the past (can't remember how the page was setup back then, but I remember the site got a face lift at some point)? Mostly I'd just attribute it to my own careless oversight. :lol:
Now that I look at the front page it seems obvious enought. Perhaps a date indicating the last nightly build date would make it seem more "current"? Though I realise that would be kinda redundant with a nightly build

I remember thinking the same when I first saw the C::B site, I think that was mainly caused due to the main-site being really out to date on a couple of places, like: the news thingy, the improvements and known bugs.
But mainly, it's the "Latest official release: 1.0rc2, Oct 25, 2005" standing out above everything else.
Ofcourse, there's the "Development snapshots are also available, one each night (try them, they 're pretty stable and unbelievably feature-rich!)." below it, but I thought like "suuure, latest release is almost a year ago, this one's dead, they just didn't remove that message".
What would be like, superb, is a message underneath that "Latest official release", reading: "Latest nightly build"?
Note: I'm not trying to critisize anything, just trying to explain what I thought.

* When creating a new empty file, the user is asked to add it in the active project (old behaviour re-instated)
* Avoid duplicate entries when code-completing #includes (bug #8692)

THANKYOU! With these 2 things now C::B does EVERYTHING that I want!
