Release 1.0

Goal

This initial release is to just get the tool-kit out as an MVP ( minimum viable product ) for both internal and public use. Many of the components are very useful for any type of application, and the tool-kit contains some new concepts like Protocol Independent APIs.

Notes

While many of the components use several of Scala's features like case classes, traits, call by name, tuples, etc, some may not be idiomatic Scala. This will change in the upcoming release(s) which will make the components immutable and functional.

Upcoming

The next release will focus on making some of the components more functional and fully immutable.
