Katanda is dead. Long live Nensendi!



I've learned a lot while writing and testing the Katanda translation
software.  As a result, I've concluded that Katanda itself has several
serious flaws that need to be fixed if it's to be an MTIL that's as
useful as possible.

Unfortunately, the flaws cannot be fixed without a major re-design of
the language and the software.

I'm currently re-writing the reference manual to reflect the changes
from Katanda to Nensendi, and it should be ready for downloading in a
few weeks.  In the meantime, if you're interested in what Nensendi will
look like, check out this URL:

 or http://www.srv.net/~ram/Nensendi/index.html

The Katanda files will remain available for the foreseeable future at
these URLs:

    http://www.eskimo.com/~ram/Katanda/index.html
 or http://www.srv.net/~ram/Katanda/index.html

My account at srv.net will be expiring at the end of February, and I
haven't yet decided if I will renew it or move to a different ISP.  If I
do change ISPs, I'll let you know.
