There is Trac, at the group's site at http://sharpos.sf.net , with some tickets and some milestones in. But trunk commit is wide open. No real API design docs, no overall architecture diagram, etc aside from the textual writeups on the website. I've been taking my time trying to design the VM / runtime before I code. And I don't even commit to my local branch in the repository until my code's runnable. Which is why you won't see anything in my local branch yet. :) |
