Hey all, I was wondering what you guys thought of this.

http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/warp

It's my own project and while I know I have not put out a new release in a
few months I have had exams so had to revise for them, but work has
continued, and I have one new feature to implement before the new version
comes out, I would like to point out the first package format I implemented
was in fact autopackage support because my theory is when a new autopackage
comes out Warp will automatically check remove the old version and install
the new version. I figure it's easier for the user to have a program to
automatically update their autopackages than searching for them manually.

Warp aim's to bridge the gap between distributions not adding new features
until a new release and users wanting new features in the interim. It's
written in C# and uses bash calls occasionally to work on Nix systems. It's
worth pointing out the code I have on my hard drive is much cleaner and
better than what's on sourceforge at the moment, but I do not know how to
use svn or cvs and can't understand the sourceforge documents on how to make
it work.

Feedback, opinions, discussions are welcome, indeed this is the point of the
email, as I've been working on my own with no help or even many suggestions
as to what might/might not be a good idea. So if anyone wishes to suggest
new features I would appreciate it. I am not looking for new developers, of
course you are welcome if you wish, but that's not the point of this email.
It's a 'what do people think?' email.

Thanks
Neil Munro
