But I haven't really worked on it since September, so it isn't ready yet. However DocGenerator is now more or less ready to be released. Still a lot of things to improve and implement in theory… but well I have to stop at some point :-) I'll post another mail about it soon. > I'd like to do a LanguageKit release some time soon.

There are various things I wanted to do before releasing it: - Rename -properties to -propertyNames (given that -properties conflicts with some Cocoa API) - Renamed ETProperty to ETPropertyViewpoint (less critical, but it's related to some uncommitted code I have. This code makes possible to create custom viewpoints on an object graph, where a viewpoint corresponds to a new object graph representation) - iirc the mixin support is still broken with the new runtime - Finish to document the mirror reflection API - Deprecate most NSURL+Etoile which only works with the file scheme and have GNUstep base implement the new equivalent methods recently added to Mac OS X - Improve the documentation to use the new DocGenerator abilities (like grouping classes/protocols/categories to build an API overview page, regroup methods by task etc.) So either we can ignore all that, and release it as it is, I don't mind. Or take in acccount the first and the last point, which are the only important ones in the list imo. > What else is in an approximately sensible state for a release?

So the release would include EtoileFoundation, LanguageKit, EtoileText and DocGenerator, right?
