There's nothing against exactly describing the status of the project on the
web site when it's up again. But we should make sure it's marked as
"development status" and it says precisely what works and what doesn't,
e.g.:
Interpreter:
supports put ... into ..., mathematical operators, strings, longs
and doubles.
File Format:
Supports reading/writing entire blocks from/to RAM or external
files, compacting a file (e.g. removing wasted space).
UI:
some studies how to implement overlapping shapes.
And maybe a list of things that are planned in the near future (e.g.
hit-testing for the UI-shapes and a text drawing class, streaming of
partial block for the block file and fixed repeat/if...then for he
interpreter.
This is just from memory, if some facts are wrong then I'd like it if you
rectified them in a short sentence.
Cheers,
