MPS state Follow
Hi MPS-team,
Could somebody please shed some light on the planned future of MPS? When we
can expect version 1.0? What features will it contain? What is a/the
concrete usecase you are targetting with it?
After seeing the death of (Visual) Fabrique after 3(?) years of enormous
effort, I can't imagine a lot of people will use the current MPS state for
solving real-world problems with it, because no one knows (except you)
whether it will have the same fate as (V)F.

Hello, Tom,
Everything is well with MPS now :-). But MPS is still research project
so it is very hard to think about its features in next build not to
mention version 1.0. We are now working on its applications and in near
future we will release several MPS-based applications.
Just curious, when we can expect a new MPS-build?
Tom
I would like to see new EAP build early next week.

Will it base on new EAP version of IDEA or will it run on the release
version? Or even better: will it be independent of IDEA or an plug-in within
IDEA?

New version of MPS will use release version IDEA (And because there were
no major changes in open API in EAP version i think it will run well on
it). We still need to write a lot of java code so integration with IDEA
greatly simplifies our life.
