Something that can help a little: The Eclipse for Java Developers EPP package notifies developers about new blog posts, articles etc. inside their IDE. You may ask Ian whether he can add a post to this feed. You can not expect wonders from it. I count 50 readers per day for a blog post. But it may help to make people aware of the issue. But maybe these readers can help others when they hear about their problems.
