Active development

[Joe Ocampo]

With Boo Language Studio integrating with VS 2008 my interest has
really peaked with this project. Is there still active development
occurring with this project before I commit to trying it out?

the guy with commit rights (cedric) has been busy as of late, from
what i've gathered.. he's also a pretty active committer to the boo
repo and is occupied with that, as well.

I've had some refactoring i've wanted to commit.. just haven't got
around to it... Specter definately needs some love.. mostly around
corner cases for using Should with various, common BCL reference types
(DateTime is one of those)...

also, i feel like there's some work that could be done to make specter
much more easily extensible.. but that's just my opinion :)

additonally, specter makes heavy use of macros to save precious
keystrokes and let you concentrate on verifying behavior (as opposed
to specifying TestMethodAttributes)... the groundwork hasn't been laid
yet, in BooLangStudio, to handle colorization for macro keywords (but
it isn't at all an impossible task).

Also, BooLangStudio currently lacks all of the tooling (namely re#'er)
that gives you a shorter test->implementation cycle. So it's give and
take, I guess.

Cheers,
Jeff
