The GShell APIs are getting closer and closer to stability. The major changes have all been committed, and I don't have any plans to make any other significant changes to the core APIs. What I am doing now is trying to slim down the core dependencies and speed up the boot time... and sorting out some of the many HACK/TODO comments which I've littered the codebase with.

As for an alpha-2 release, I imagine that will be on the horizon soon. I don't plan on having all of the little things fixed before that, though I hope to sort out a few of the more significant ones before releasing. If I had to guess I'd say that the codebase should be in a position to be released in 2-4 weeks at present change velocity.

In ServiceMix, we are considering upgrading to the latest trunk of
GShell and I've already done the bigger part of the upgrade locally on
my HD.  Btw, I've committed a few small changes for that yesterday.
However, I'm worried about the stability of gshell.  We currently use
an old and unreleased version of gshell, but I'd like to avoid such
issue and having to rewrite this integration once more.
Jason, what's your feeling about gshell's stability (in terms of APIs)
and a possible ETA for a new release (be it alpha-2 or whatever) ?
