Upcoming 1.1 Release

Those of you who keep an eye on our SVN traffic may have noticed that we haven't slowed down since the 1.0 release. I wanted to take a minute to mention a few of the improvements that are in store. The first, and biggest, is the shiny new C++ API for interacting with Chai. Watch this page for up-to-date examples.

The second is a fix to ChaiScript itself. We're moving from "elseif" to the more C++-similar "else if".

Lastly, we're working to improve the homepage and documentation. The plan is to have much more thorough, and generally nicer, documentation by release time.
