Thanks for your interested.
EMG is an on-going project. So far, I want it to become really stable
and fast to be usable.
I do use it for my own projects in order to enhance it.
Beside reliability/efficiency, I feel at least a couple of things are
missing. The first one is a better integration with morphic. All
morphs should better support visual manipulation and linking to other
objects by providing appropriate menus, halos, etc. This is a huge
work that needs the involvement of all the morphic community. The
second thing which I felt useful when using EMG is to display links
(i.e. references) among morphs (and with non-visual objects). I shall
add and extra feature which is providing every object with facilities
to allow handling them visually. That is, I'd like that every object
can have a "morphic view" as done in the Morphic Wrappers project.
