Linkman, tsk tsk CC is not dead... Lucid, r0j0, and others still work on it. The latest compile should be out very soon, if not already (I haven't checked in the last 48 hours).
Both platforms are good though, for different reasons. It mainly boils down to your target audience and how you want to distribute your project. Linkman is right about stability of C2 though, it's much nicer and doesn't do "weird stuff" anywhere near as much as CC.
I still *heart* CC though. I am in a team that is using CC for a major game release, so it still has some viability if you like the EXE based release platform.
Now, all that being said this tpoic is not really a tool or resource, rather a question. I will move it to Open Topic now :)
Also, welcome to the boards Andy. :D
