Re: Time to Move On

I've been an ardent supporter of Q+ for many years and it is indeed a sad
day. I do mostly front-end work and knew once HTML5 and CSS3 started to
gain traction, The days of Q+ were numbered.

I've since moved on to Aptana3 like many others here and have grown pretty
comfortable with it. It still has its drawbacks, but for now, it's good.
I've also installed the Zen Coding plugin and have seen my coding speeds
increased substantially.

I'll still hang in there, still lurking on the list, waiting to see if Q+
can make a comeback some day.
