Hi Jonathan, I know this is still ongoing and still experementing to find the right sounds, but having small changes regularly commited to svn will allow people to learn by looking at small changes and seeing the effects. svn commits often includes many changes to many languages, so it is dificult to see what change was made to what conversation. It would be ideal if you could make a commit for each version that you upload to the latest development page. Thank you for your consideration.
