Thanks for that, you are right ;-)

As a C# developer it was very hard for me to see, that there is no usable IDE for vala.
To start developing by my own(with vala) it was necessary to have something like monoDevelop or VisualStudio

For me as a vala-newbie, it was very very very very hard to write that IDE, help was not really avail.
So be aware for me it makes no difference if someone using it or not, I DO...
