Hi Marcos,

You're in the project member list now and have access to CVS.

EiffelBase will not be supported anymore because of its licensing issue with
non-standard Eiffel contructs which are used by SmartEiffel 2.0 and beyond.
Gobo's support for SmartEiffel 2.x is uncertain and hence the Gobo libraries
will not be used anymore.
So there is a need to have a Base library of our own that will be used by
other parts of  RainbowEiffel.

The priorities are as follows:
(1) Base library design and implementation
(2) Port existing IDE code to SE 2.0 (Windows)
(3) Port IDE to Linux
(4) Design and implement new IDE features (configuration manager, build
manager, debugger, class/feature browser, DLL support, plug-in modules,
etc.).  We may also want to re-architect and redesign the IDE.  Currently
the IDE has no clear and good architecture/design yet.

I will try to come up with more detailed task list later on.  I hope you can
participate in both design and development works.

-- Brian
