Coat entering Moose’s family

I’m glad to announce that Coat’s source tree has just been imported into Moose’s SVN repository. After a couple of days of development and collaboration with Stevan and Mst (Class::MOP and Moose developers) the idea to put Coat and Moose together got stronger.

I was honoured to be asked to share the Moose repo, and I thank you Moose people very much for hosting Coat like that, I hope this is the begining of long-and-happy collaboration.

Coat continues to get stronger, the last revision I commited todaytonight was about the new Coat::Meta class, that takes care of everything regarding, well, the meta layer. The last big thing to address is the attribute types handling for which I plan to write Coat::Types. I’m not yet sure how I’ll implement it, I want to keep it simple although it has to be efficient and well designed.
