Read a manual today!

In my last .plan (waaay too many of my .plans start this way) I mentioned that I'd like to put up information on my work in a series of blogs, discussing design decisions, how the various components evolved, where there are now, etc. About half way through writing the first one, I decided it was incredibly boring, and figured if anyone wanted to learn stuff about the Modernization Kit, they'd just read the manual.
Here's the manual.
I went through the source, documented just about everything worth documenting (and a lot of things not worth documenting) and ran dOxygen on it. The result is the closest thing the ModernizationKit has to a manual at the moment, so if you want to know more about what it does and how it's structured, this is it.
The rough timeline to release says that I should be locking down the feature set and class list early February, after which it's test test test and getting a Windows port (there's a phrase you don't see too often) underway. The initial public release will be version 0.8, as I still have a few things to add before I'm comfortable calling it 1.0, but I figure that anyone who wants it wanted it six months ago and doesn't care if the code is a travesty against mankind.
In closing, have a picture! I've probably already posted this one, but it's the most recent one I have and the latest build is busted... oops?
If you have any comments, questions, cease and desist letters, whatever, feel free to email me, bug me on AIM, or leave a comment. My email address and AIM screen name are both in my profile.
