The development for ChaiScript has officially moved to github.

It's important to share something about the development process we have at ChaiScript.

• We never make a commit unless the commit passes all unit tests.
• We never commit a new feature without an accompanying unit test.

What does this mean to you, the user? Mainly it means that even though we have not pushed out an official release in nearly a year, git master branch always represents a stable release.
