Summary of indev phase

[dzikoysk]

It was quite a long time to get here. As always, there are some doubts about the quality of the delivered content and plans for the future. Quick summary in view of future progress:

What went wrong (to fix in alpha):

• Over-engineered API: complex layer of advanced tools that impacts the performance and overall user experience
• Exceptions: some of the significant exceptions are not handled in a proper way for no reason
• Invalid implementation of assignation parser
• Messed up system of java types and its correlation with Panda modules
• Not as user-friendly as it might be (sheduled for beta)

The good things:

• Flexible API that allows us to fix the problems above
• Foundations for the whole ecosystem
• Experience in developing such systems
• Promising results (e.g. advent of code in panda)
• Specified shape of syntax (language proposals)
