BTW: These include features that have yet to make it into the released code.

The first developer release is already starting to look like a nice web based forms package for the mod_perl/mysql Metadot portal system.

This release is targetted at developers.
It definitely has bugs and missing functionality.

All that remains is to figure out what to do about the places we fixed bugs in the Metadot core project to get forms to work.
