Sure, but I was more thinking about finishing the 0.1 release first... From
all the points, which do you think should be put in the final 0.1 release ?

My guess (unverified) is that:
> 1* 16f support of the compiler is good,
> 2* 18f probably is a bit buggy.
> 3*  we have good device files for almost all pic's.
> 4* higher level libraries (like adc, but probably also other ones)
> mostly support 16f chips.
> 5* there might be functionality missing (can't say what by heart, but
> a look at the peripherals in the datasheet might help).
> 6* documenation (samples etc) could be better.
> 7* support tools can make our work easier or better.

For 0.1, I'd 6 and 7 (maybe a little of 5...)

7 includes testing (tools, strategy), as well as continues integration

Without such tools, you can also waste a lot of time, for the same things,
again and again. It's a good investment IMHO. Once configured, you have few
to do to maintain it. As any project, you don't only produce what is
considered the final results (and we also write a lot of code which produce
jal code :)). I'm almost done on my buildbot, so I suggest we give a try,
and see how it consumes our time (on the long term).
