a new Rosetta snapshot is released (v0.722.0)



All,

This isn't a formal announcement, but I would still like to alert you to the newest Rosetta release v0.722.0 ( http://search.cpan.org/dist/Rosetta/ ).

My own conception of the project has changed a lot in the last couple months, and now a lot of the main documentation reflects this, so there is now something reasonably up to date for you to look at and get an idea where I'm going with this.

Mainly I draw your attention to the DESCRIPTION of Rosetta.pm ( http://search.cpan.org/dist/Rosetta/lib/Rosetta.pm ), and to the top half of Language.pod ( http://search.cpan.org/dist/Rosetta/lib/Rosetta/Language.pod ), specifically the parts that *don't* say "older". All of that was written since the previous release, and contains a lot of significant ideas.

At the same time, all of this is still (part of) the 10,000 mile view, which is good for setting a context to understand the details and code examples which are not yet present but will come later.

Also, the included new application "shell.pl" does run, though its functionality is bare bones; it will be fleshed out soon.

As usual, also pay attention to the public Subversion repositories, whose urls are in the README, as they can be several weeks newer than CPAN releases.

Enjoy!
