The docs have been much improved - are you sure you have got the updated 
versions? A while ago Steve and Laurent went through and updated or added 
most (if not all) function, methods and events.

The introduction, and tutorials could be improved though:)

At the moment the samples are only included with the source - perhaps it's 
worth including them with the binary too?

Once V1 is built and on sourceforge, it would be a good idea to do a bit of 
a 'marketing' blitz and hit the various newsgroups and websites (perlmonks, 
activestate etc) and inform people that a new version is available. How do 
we get V1 added to the activestate repositories?

I'm also of the view that you can never have enough examples:) So perhaps 
it's an idea to call for more examples, perhaps with a set of goals in mind 
(a couple of examples per control, "advanced" concepts, full applications 
etc )?

Cheers,
