Thank you Leeor. And a very big thank you to Brett for all the work he's put into it.
As of today, the project now compiles on Linux.
There might still be a few rough edges, as some of the changes still need to settle into the master branch, and a few warnings may need to be addressed.
I'm particularly excited about the Streams portion of it, as I've been thinking about that part for quite some time. Though I admit there is so much more that can be done there. There may be some API changes coming to address a few shortcomings recently encountered, but likely mostly in the form of additions or restrictions on bad usage to prevent accidental bugs. I doubt changes will break existing good code from a user perspective. No promises yet for people implementing derived classes though.
Using CMake could be cool. We've talked about using that here for a while now. This just might be the project that forces us to do it. I'm still a little apprehensive about having to learn it, though now is probably a good time.
Overall, this project has been a lot of fun. It's also been a great learning opportunity. Both about tooling, such as using GitHub, and about the additions from the newer C++ standards. The C++ language has really changed in recent years, and it's received a lot of much needed improvement.
