I personally learned quite a few things while working with you and I 
certainly hope that I was helpful too.
As Elmar said let's keep up the good work and make the future release an 
even better treat !

Now to talk about next release, I would like to add a few things.
I've been so busy in the past months that I didn't participate much but I 
surely followed the changes and I have to say that there's been a lot of 
them.

I personally was still working with the CVS version of the code plus my own 
changes until last week and while recreating my working environment I found 
a lot of stuffs that are either undocumented or simply failing.

So technically, I'm merging my changes to the current version while making 
notes of what problems are and how to solve them. I'm then going to write 
doing some docu about it.

My (Hal and I actually worked on it) changes are mainly: possibility of 
Multiple panels for each panel, superuser Panel, printing panel, pack 
encryption, full localization. And some other stuffs. Everything can be 
setup through a simpleconfig.xml file. Once Hal is back on track and that 
I've manage to overcome all the issues with the merge we'll post all details 
about it.

So to sum up:

1) localized logger with information to the end user about the success of an 
install
2) move to XML parsing, using the core API of Java.

+

3) Redo Docu (also add ant integration  for it pdf generation and stuffs)
optionally 4) Add my features if accepted by the list.

Cheers,
Fabrice
