That's good

Yes

My concern is also the installation of the corelinux framework

now we have -lcl++
corelinuxframework might be -lclfw++
or if we hace separate libs: 
  - loader :  -lclfwll++
  - persistence : -lclfwp++
the include files might go all in <prefix>/include/clfw 
 - <prefix>/include/clfw/LibLoad/*.hpp
 - <prefix>/include/clfw/Persistence/*.hpp
and so on

so users would do:

#include<clfw/LibLoader.hpp>
or
#include<clfw/Presistence.hpp>

in LibLoader.hpp you include all necessary headers (like that 
clfw/LibLoader/<whatever>.hpp) so that you need only to add 
-I<prefix>/include 
if prefix != /usr

and everything is defined within the namespace (for example) clfw::LibLoader
or clfw::Persistence

does it make sense?
is it somewhat related to what you have in mind?

yes

see above :)

well I agree and ready to work


as for the release 0.4.26 I'll be online tomorrow afternoon
so we can tackle all the tasks before the release.
