Well, I like Merlin too, not cause I know what it could do for me, but cause I'm able to build and run its examples.
And if you say that fulcrum is moving towards Merlin too, then Merlin it is for me too. I'll worry abt explaining why to others later. So is Merlin 3.2+ only available for CVS download right now, I could only find the 3.0 binaries from the link on http://avalon.apache.org/download.cgi Which version is recommended now. Are merlin 3.2+ binaries available somewhere.

There are still a couple to go and to deal with these there are updates to Merlin that are needed to to job in an architecturally consistent manner. These changes are well underway within the Merlin 3.4 branch.
