Here is an interesting tool called SPVisualDev. Thought I could share with everyone :)

Without much boring texts, here is what you get with this wonderful tool

First, it creates this lovely folder structure for your project :)

Another cool project worth mentioning is the MOSS Feature Generator. The MOSS Feature Generator generates features out of existing functionalities on a MOSS 2007 site. This includes Site Columns, Content Types and ListTemplates (including schema.xml and forms). The tool will be expanded in two ways: a build tree will be created to make it possible to create dependant features in an organized way, and the number of supported features will be expanded.
