=== Plans for 0.3 release (Under construction)======= Code ====All the code for the 0.3 release can be found [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/imgs/Pcallaghanzeropointthree.zip here]. This contains three files:While all <ul><li>pcallaghanzeropointthreeWHOLE.txt - the required functions exist, unit tests would streamline entire patch</li><li>pcallaghanzeropointthreeCODE.txt - the changes to the src directory</li><li>pcallaghanzeropointthreeTEST.txt - the testing process and ensure each function does exaclty what it's supposed changes totest/distcctest.py</li></ul>These should be applied from the trunk directory. ThereforeNOTE: use either pcallaghanzeropointthreeWHOLE.txt OR both the others, depending on your preference. The end result is the major component of same.

<ul>=== Plans for 0.3 release ===While all the required functions exist, unit tests would streamline the testing process and ensure each function does exaclty what it's supposed to. Therefore, the major component of the 0.3 release is going to be a series of tests for the functions that can be run after any changes. In addition, (Time permitting) I'll clean up the instructions and make them clearer.

=== 0.25 Release (Obsolete) ===
A new [http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dfkp8fkz_3hqpw4f patch] has been created. All required functions are now complete for the Mono C# compiler. Now is a great time for more contributors to test this project and try to find (or fix) any bugs that pop up. I'm still having trouble with SVN, but I expect to get that sorted out soon.
