Releases?

What are the plans in terms of releasing a version of scalax at some
point, even if it's not considered to be a stable release? Its
perpetually unreleased state basically means we're constrained to only
depend on it in applications and can't use it in libraries (else you
run into serious versioning issues). This is a bit painful, as much of
scalax.io and similar stuff would be really useful to have as a
general toolkit.

Additionally: Originally there seemed to be some talk of scalax
serving as a proving ground for merging stuff back into the Scala
standard libraries. This seems to have completely evaporated. Is it
still on the radar at all?

Ah, I missed that.

Not surprising really, as it sure as hell isn't visible anywhere on
the site, nor has it received any sort of widespread announcement. :-)

Thanks.

Yeah, I know... I've updated the website now.
