genCore 0.7-minor0 released!

I released genCore 0.7.0 today. I'm not too happy about it, because I planned to release it after I finish testing the XML module and after I finish the GUI module. However, I do need the responses about the new Circuits way, so I'm releasing this minor-0 version. When the XML module is finished, I'll release a minor-1, GUI, minor-2, and then, check this out: Eclipse plugin!

So its worth the wait, and worth the feedback. Please let me know what you think, so I can change the interfaces and abstractions, before it'll cost in many hours of work to make changes.

Now, from the release notes and change log:

ChangeLog:
**********

MAJOR changes!

Circuits is implemented and placed in. The TSPSolution example now supports it using the XML version of it! If the XML version doesnt work... Contact me. Please, do.

I hope you enjoy the changes: I know I enjoy them, and I think that it makes the entire system a hell lot more beautiful, code- and design-wise.

Notes:
******
You must've noticed that this release has another minor-version tag with it. This is due to the fact that the Circuits module is still beta-tested (I know.. I know.. "As opposed to all genCore"?)

Anyway, the whole XML module is still being tested as its using JAXB and I'm still not proficient with it, and the GUI module is just in planning phase!

Another thing, because of the XML module, you would need JAXB support to make this work, this time its an external jar. Maybe in future releases I'll supply it inside the tar.gz, but this time I'm not - You can download it at http://java.sun.com, get the web services toolkit 1.4 and just install the JAXB part of it. Then add the Jars in the /lib directory to the class path when you compile and run genCore-enabled applications.
Be patient. More minor releases are to come!

I hope you enjoy this minor-release.
