I agree, a lot more needs to be done to give burgeoning developers a clear, slick and easy path into development for the platform.

The problem is that many projects use different ide...some projects may not even use an ide for development...
a thread in the ubuntu forum can be used for this purpose... the existing developers can guide the new developers or even recruit for their own project...This will be like a resource pool.... This can be standardized by making new developers to submit their resume(i dont know the correct word - information about what the person knows and what he is interested to do)

When a project starts the developer should submit information on setting the system to start development (like installing apps,editors etc..),which will be available at the developer home page..
Almost every developer puts these kind of information... but that needs to be standardized

The problem arises when people try and force their style into IDE's.
i think that the IDE should be full, but basic GUI (nothing fancy) that is similar to Emacs with far less key pressing
you should have a standard way of handling projects that is invisible to the user (they don't see how you handle the files) yet for every language their is a language specific interface (different for each language) that is completely customizable.
There should also be a project export that packages the project if the language appropriate manner.
I the development there should be a standard (syntax highlighting, file management, etc.) for handling languages that could be voted on.

so far I like geany...
I know little about the environments here because I use devstudio (and am spoiled)
All the linux dev environments suck compared to MS dev studio unfortunatly. However if there was an effort to make something similar for linux, I would love to be part of that development process.
