Ant and Eclipse
Andy Scott has some interesting ideas on associating Ant build scripts with an Eclipse project.

Pulse is an online Eclipse config service. Geoff Bowers has blogged an easy way to extend it.
The Daemonites has a good posing on merging with SVN in Eclipse.
I struggled to get SvnAnt to work on a Windows box some time ago and wasn't looking forward to trying to get it working on my Mac but I shouldn't have been.
It was easy!
Just install Subversion for Mac then get SvnAnt and put the *.jar in some central place which you then reference in the classpath of the build.xml script. Done!
That said, I heard recently that it's best to use the 1.1 version of SvnAnt as it includes SvnKit and doesn't need the JavaHL installed which can be problematic.
Next is to work out how to sync to a remote server via ftp.
I got ftp working by reading ANT Builds and FTP by Phill Nacelli. Which says you need to install commons-net.jar and jakarta-oro-2.0.8.jar and point Eclipse to those files.

Pulse is a customisable Eclipse distribution service which support CFEclipse and hopefully the Adobe add-ons for ColdFusion.

Dave Carabetta has some useful note on how to have several instances of Eclipse share the same set of plugins.
Do I need to say more?
Andy Jarrett has a good article Running CFUnit in CFEclipse quick guide which fit nicely with this CFEclipse's CFUnit from Robert Blackburn. I need to get into this!
Andy Jarrett has a good posting called Going beyond Eclipse's local file compare/replace on a kind of source control available in Eclipse.
