Hi there,

having spent quite a bit of time on the new C++ parser, I had to
realize that the code isn't ready to be released as a replacement
for the existing parser any time soon. This means that at least
one other release will be based on the stable branch (i.e. 'Synopsis_0_8'),
while C++ parser development will continue on the trunk.

(You may read this as a general call for volunteers. If you are
interested into a better C++ parser / frontend, and you would like
to help, please get in touch !!)


But, there are other areas to improve, which could justify a new
release (beside bug fixes). For the last couple of days I have
been looking into improvements to the comment markup processing.
Notably, I have now some support for ReStructuredText, which, after
some debugging and cleanup, will hopefully make a lot of people
happy (hi Dave !).

As I'm trying to get a clearer idea of what exactly should be
part of the next release, I'd appreciate any feedback concerning
what *you* would like to see.

Thanks,
		Stefan
