Well, it's not that I don't want to contribute, but I haven't understood
the whole problem myself.
I thought (but I guess I was wrong) that Java insures an ascendent
compatibility. Program using java 1.3 , 1.4. should work on java 1.5 or
1.6 without recompiling.
That works OK up to 1.5, but there seems to be a class incompatibility
between 1.4 and 1.6.
Also, I think when 0.8 would be released, I don't think people would
recompile it themselves :-)
There are always people who want to use the latest build. Plus we ship
with the source code, some people like to play.
Anyway, I started with forrest and I find it quite easy to use. But ONE
feature is missing :D Do you think (for forrest 0.9 or 1.5...) it would
be possible to have a syntax highlight for the code? Maybe I can help on
this (if it's not a pain in the neck;-) )
Do you mean like this feature request:
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-195
If not, feel free to add a feature request to our issue tracker
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR, with a full description of
what you need.
As for helping us implement it, join us on the dev list and we'll point
you in the right direction.
