Re: Re: Status of Exodus

Yes, Exodus development is ongoing.  As a matter of fact, it will  
probably accelerate in the coming months, as Jabber, Inc. starts to  
add code.  The work is being done in the public Subversion  
repository.  Jabber, Inc. will be producing a productized version,  
with some extra plugins.

The core of Exodus will benefit from the features, testing, and  
stabilization that should come from this effort.  The first order of  
business has been to go through the plugin API, fixing a couple of  
issues and normalizing the naming scheme.

We still need to figure out how and when to do Exodus releases, daily  
and otherwise.  If someone wanted to take on release manager  
responsibilities that would be very welcome.

We were careful to do the right thing by Peter and his estate, so  
there aren't any intellectual property issues; we had been discussing  
this with him for months before his death.
