Thanks Randy! I was going to copy that post here, in case anyone's 
interested (I'll cc it to luxasm-devel, too - we need the traffic :). 
Jeff also posted this to "his" list:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DesktopLinuxAsm/

(I think that's "his" list... not very active) As an IDE, it isn't going 
to impress Betov - just a "shell" or "brick&brock" job. (which means you 
could use it with *any* assembler!) The help system is a gem! System 
calls indexed alphbetically, numerically, and by "topic", error numbers, 
signals, structures, equates, etc. all in one place (within "one click", 
I guess, if you've got the mouse enabled...).

I haven't given it much of a workout, but it looks like a huge 
improvement over two (or so) versions ago when I last looked at it. For 
those looking for an IDE for Nasm/Linux (or Gas/Linux or Fasm/Linux or 
even HLA/Linux), it's well worth checking out!

Anyone looked at the GAMBAS "ide-nasm"???

Best,
Frank
