We at Galois would really like to move forward with merging our CAS additions into the mainline of CAS, in particular, the project funding this effort is about to end and Jonathan and I will move to other projects. Once that happens we can continue to do maintenance but our capacity for this work will be much smaller than it is currently.

Earlier this year, I posted our CAS modifications on github (https://github.com/dagit/grid2-als) and shared the link here. I haven't received any feedback on the code yet and we would really like to keep this moving. Galois can continue to do maintenance and the ideal time for us to work on this is now.

What is the best way for us to move forward? The code is available on github, but would a pull request against the CAS repository be more helpful? We haven't tried our code recently with the latest version of the CAS source, so it's possible we need to do some work there.

We are also wondering if the refactorings in CAS 4 will remove the need for some of the code we wrote to to be integrated directly into CAS. Could someone who is experienced with the generalizations in CAS 4 help us evaluate that? To help you understand how our modifications work, here is a link to our documentation: http://grid2.galois.com/release-2012-01-28/cas-als-configuration.txt

Questions? Comments? Concerns?

Thanks,
Jason
