This has definitely been my favorite cloud IDE so far. I wonder if they're going to add any of this stuff to the open source component? Last commit was on Nov. 4, 2013, so I hope they haven't stopped that part of it. (https://github.com/ajaxorg/cloud9)

Also note that all of our work on Ace was done directly on the open source repository <http://github.com/ajaxorg/ace>.

An update open source version of the IDE will follow soon.

Any idea how soon? Otherwise, how about your best guess on the probable order of magnitude that the estimate will be? (days, weeks, months?)

weeks

Thank you!

The new version is based on a completely new code base. We have a new core and eventually ported and rewrote most of the old plugins one by one. We're working on the APIs and documentation right now and want to bring the new version to github again pretty soon.

Awesome to hear! Looking forward to checking it out. Are you guys still using Architect? I love that module but I always felt it had a lot more potential -- wasn't sure if there were plans to enhance it at all.

Yes we use architect. It is at the core of Cloud9. We use it specifically client side. Our updates will find it's way back to the OSS repo soon.
