Thanks for the reply. I tried the IvyDE build. It builds the Jar however doesn't seem to do the site correctly. If I get time Ill try it again and report whats happening. It might be my environment.
It would be great if there were snapshot releases avaialbe nightly from the ivyde website. :) The IvyDE release seems fine when I add it manually however and the patch we submitted seems fine. Many thanks for the fast turn around :) Ill report back on the trunk either a) when ive managed to build it, or B) grabbed hold of your build version.

Building from trunk should be easy, all you need is a svn checkout of trunk and ant 1.6+ installed on your box, with NO ivy jar in your ant lib.

Same as for Ivy, Nicolas has done a great job to provide an easy build and related instructions for IvyDE, you should be able to build it yourself. And note that you don't need to rebuild IvyDE to upgrade Ivy in IvyDE, with latest release of IvyDE, you can simply drop ivy.jar in your eclipse plugins directory and eclipse should take the latest.
