That's one of the reasons I've been taking a poll to measure usage 
patterns (everyone here please vote at 
<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MC_IDE/surveys?id=11737473> if you 
haven't done so already).

Only a third of the members of the group have voted, so it's hard to say 
if things have changed much since the acquisition of the MC engine by RR.

 From what I can tell nearly everyone using the MC IDE has had a copy of 
MC from before the acquisition.  I've seen a number of former MC users 
switch to the Rev IDE, but am not familiar with any Rev users switching 
to MC.  That may explain why it's been nearly a year and the issue 
hasn't come up before.

If someone wants to put together the appropriate plist, resources, and 
other bundle components needed with some instructions on putting them to 
use it would make a nice addition to the file repository.
