web-framework. The SFC has suggested including a Flattr [1]
contribution on member-project web-sites, which will be considered
for the new site.</p>

release this month while energy is building for 4.5. Colin wants
full Environments in 4.5, as well as adoption of his FileSystem
framework. Chris Muller wants Themes so the look of the system
can be more easily customized and also inclusion (or easy
loadability) of the latest Refactoring Engine. We also want to
finally begin purging long-deprecated code.</p>
