Re: VisLua - Cross platform Lua IDE

["Matt Holmes" <kerion@...>]

Guys,

If you want to participate in planning the editor and giving comments,
please do everyone on the lua-l list a favor and join the visuallua-devs
list. You can do that at:
https://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=33174

If you don't want to join another list, but would like to post a comment
about the editor, please send it to me personally and I will forward it to
the guys on the list. You may also want to join visuallua-users, as we will
be posting ANNs of alphas/betas, etc etc to that list.

Thanks,

Matt "Kerion" Holmes
