Even number version are used for release (I messed up with 1.7.3, it should
have been 1.7.4), odd version for current CVS. Any change done in the CVS
repository from now will be for 1.7.10. The snapshot was done Monday.

compiler outputter for post build check...

I was thinking of adding a general architecture overview page (creating test

and writing test result)

Huuh, what are you talking about ? CppUnit TestCase are in
examples/cppunittest. Are you refering to something else ?

Beyond that, it is a GO ? What platform are you using ? Volker Boerchers is
having trouble compiling on Linux.
