Neon 0.2 nearly there…..

Okay yes it’s been such a long time coming……

Finally, I’ve managed to get around to sorting out some of the issues with Neon, such as the transparent grid capabilities, and add a few things in and sort major parts of the code out.

There are a couple of things left over being the site docs and tutorials, and a few good samples to show how it works

Of things that won’t be sorted out until the 0.3 release, the major things are

• Zenith dispatcher – I’m thinking through concepts for a dispatcher policy that can be specified at deploy time so you can change the way Zenith handles incoming messages to suit your needs
• Slices – a very small bit of ‘Slices’ will be in 0.2 but the main part requires a lot of other foundation stuff from 0.2
• In-Call Mobility – ICM allows for an agent to move host during a method call on that agent. It needs better support in Neon for savepoints and savepoint based restarts

So it’s getting there…..slowly
