The GOALS of Cosmos.Standard | 0.2.0 release plan

[alexinea]

Cosmos.Standard has been a long time since the beginning of the project. It is the underlying toolset of the cosmos-loops project (COSMOSLOOPS PROGRAME) (currently, Standard and Prowess jointly form the underlying toolset).

Cosmos.Standard is derived from a set of codes used in many production and commercial projects, and it is an open source part of the latter. For many reasons, Cosmos.Standard is very different from closed source projects, so the refactoring of Cosmos.Standard will be an important part of cosmos-loops 0.2.0 #2.

We need to add a large number of unit tests to Cosmos.Standard, and adjust each tool set to choose each function. In this process, we will follow the "subtraction principle", namely:

• Cosmos core project (Cosmos.Core) provides basic toolset
• Cosmos core extension (other parts of Cosmos.Standard) provides necessary and useful toolset
• Cosmos Enhanced Extension (Cosmos.Prowess) provides a sufficient and enhanced toolset
• All experimental projects will be transferred to the projects prefixed with Alexinea.* and will not remain under cosmos-loops

From the current state to cosmos-loops 0.2.0, it will take some time. The goal of this refactoring is to make Cosmos.Standard more usable without hidden problems. At the same time, the code organization style has gradually become clear, providing a reliable basis for the two larger versions 0.2.5 and 0.2.8.

0.3.0 will be another milestone version.
