Hi Antony,

is there a website for the project with some documentation?

You mention the specification files, but those aren't included in the
SNAPSHOT release. So all I have are some not-so-useful SDocs, your
hints here and a link to
http://technically.us/code/x/the-escape-hatch, which doesn't help
either.

Also, when looking at the source files I see a lot of ⇒ icons, which
my Eclipse just displays as a little rectangle. That makes it somewhat
difficult to use those - could you stick with an ASCII charset?
