I can't believe the last update to this post was three years ago.

Just yesterday I completed a complete rewrite of the module system. That is pretty much the base component of the entire system. Several years ago I noticed there were serious problems with the low-level design. It just took me this long to take the time to fix them.

If the proof-of-concepts ever gets to a usable state you will here about it here first!
