In an ideal world... ahem... :-) Spirit2 is a complete
redesign.

My priorities (WRT personal projects) right now are:
1) Get fusion out for boost formal review
2) Get phoenix-2 out
3) Spirit-2

It seems that 2 got ahead of 1. There's a planned Phoenix2
release on Oct 10. Rest assured it's moving. Maintaining
3 non-trivial libraries is not easy.

Cheers,
