All the features described earlier are part of that v4.0.X release. http://www.smallscript.org/Downloads/downloads_home.asp The 4.1.X[alpha] 2004 release of S#.AOS is actually available as well on a daily basis as it is being worked on in preparation for a general packaged (unrestricted) release. ftp://ftp.smallscript.org/partners/SSharp/ CVS access to the 4.1.X alpha build, tools, libs, samples, etc are located at: :sspi:pubcvs:pubcvs@cvs.community.smallscript.org:/aos/DESIRED_MODULE_NAME Tortoise CVS Tool - http://www.tortoisecvs.org/download.shtml Protocol: "sspi" Server: "cvs.community.smallscript.com" Port: (leave this field blank) Repository folder: "/aos" User name: "pubcvs:pubcvs" Module: "DESIRED_MODULE_NAME" Weekly afternoon discussions and chats are held on Fridays at 4PM EST on the following IRC server: irc://irc.community.smallscript.org/community It is the S#.NET version 4.1.X which has not been made publicly available. That version is in preparation but will likely not be made available within the next 3 months or so because the documentation, tool integration, and framework polishing is (unfortunately) a long and slow process. [S#.AOS is free -- noting that as products go, tools generally don't make money]. Cheers, -- Dave S.
