  I recently began working the the Morphic side of
Magritte.  This is  
 an outstanding package.

 However I have noticed that some aspects of Magritte are more  
 complete on Seaside then they are on the Morphic side.  What is the  
 status of Magritte-Morph.  Will it continue to be developed or is  
 it simply Dead Code. The morphic part of Magritte is more a prove of concept than
code  
useable in production. I only implemented the parts that are needed  
to run Pier within the Squeak image. Pier itself only uses a subset  
of Magritte, therefor the package Magritte-Morph has never been taken  
as far as Magritte-Seaside that is used in several industrial  
application. Most of the productive applications I am involved with  
are Web applications. Quite a lot of those applications use Magritte- 
Seaside, therefor I concentrated most of my energy on this package.

Right now, since time and commercial interest for Magritte-Morphic is  
missing, I am unable to continue with this sub-project on my own. I  
am still keeping the package up-to-date to make it work together with  
Pier, but I in the short I will not implement new features. However,  
I would be glad and willing to help, if anybody takes over the  
development of Magritte-Morph, or even starts with something new like  
Magritte-Tweak or Magritte-Sophie.

Cheers,
Lukas
