Since the demise of the Kepler Project as a formal entity it's been
really quiet, unless Fabio is around. And he is currently in Greece,
taking pretty pictures ;)

These projects are important enough to be adopted by people who have
an interest in keeping these very important projects alive, like
Matthew with LuaExpat.

For instance, LuaFileSystem has yet to usefully acknowledge that
Windows has had hard and symbolic links for ten years.

As for LuaDoc, I found it hard to bend to my will. Based on
discussions with Norman Clarke, I've even been working on another tool
that's LuaDoc-like, but in a form I can understand. It handles the
fact that not all modules start with module(), that people like using
classes in Lua, and that C extension writers also have a hard time
documenting modules.
