These are the only components surviving from 0.1: LuceneKit OgreKit PreferencesKit -> PaneKit UnitKit It means everything in Bundles, Languages, Services, and most of Frameworks are new. > > > - Why should people use this? > > They're brave and/or foolish? > > I think we're mainly aimed at developers at the moment, and although > many apps work well the whole system is still quite alpha.
