DictionaryAdapter is a very useful utility that generates a typed wrapper (based on an Interface Hierarchy) around dictionaries.

I'd vote -1 for leaving that out. Besides, anyone who uses the CodeGenerator is using that one too.

on that notion - +1 for adding CodeGenerator.

I'd also like to know what I should do in order to get AspView into the mix.
As for value - well we use it at MusicGlue for all our web development, on all our production sites.
I know of at least one solid startup in Israel that had embraced MR only when they were presented with AspView (on my MR/AspView talk).

Support - well, I haven't noticed questions about that and I monitor the dev and users list. Nothing in the forum, too (I'm searching for 'AspView' from time to time).

Documentation - well that is probably the problem. I think I could try and duplicate NV and Brail docs and convert the code samples. Is that the missing link?

Hey all,

So the 1.0 branch is almost OK, the next step is the Wix setup wizard.
And then it comes down to decide what is going to be on it. We have
the option to include the whole contrib as a separated file (zip) but
that might mislead people to think that we support it. Offering it as
a separated download is another option.

What I like best is to include a few contrib projects that have proven
their value, are documented and supported. I'd like to include,
provided that everyone is OK with that:

- CVSI (need to figure out how)
- ActiveWriter (ditto)
- MR ViewComponents

The other contributions are being left out due to either lack of
documentation of lack of support. I've seen questions popping here in
this list and not being fully appreciated. This can be reviewed for
the 1.0 release, though, so dont need to curse me.

From the main trunk, I'd like to leave some things out. Namely:

- DictionaryAdapter (what is it for anyway?)
- Facilities:
  - Cache (stalled)
  - Db4o (license issues)
  - DynamicLoader (no documentation whatsoever)
  - EnterpriseLibrary (stalled)
  - iBatisNet (stalled)
  - Prevalence (stalled)
  - Synchronize (no documentation at all)
  - Wcf (no documentation and it's not even a facility)
  - ManagementExtensions (stalled)
  - Security (stalled)

Obviously, everything is open to discussion.

Thanks
