New version is out!

As before, the version is on gna.org, part of a subversion repository. Quick sum up of the changelog: What changed mostly is MOMnet.rb: Now it is validated and can generate MOM networks.

The option to get MOM networks to be generated relieves the developer to define -- and possibly debug -- MOM networks by his/her own. (I experienced, because of their dual nature -- edges meaning might be given/is given --, MOM networks are harder to debug but pure program code.) Having one -- better: more but one..multiple -- MOM network(s) at hand allows to reorganize the network to make implicit content explicit (marketing speak: "generate new content from yet given one/determine previously unknown content").

Other changes made possible to derive one HomogenousSetDerivatesInfrastructure class from another and inherit the class of the items to be dealed with too. Previously, that class was mentioned in a plain class variable of HomogenousSetDerivatesInfrastructure, which Ruby does not inherit normally. The recent change circumvents that Ruby default behaviour: MOMnet derives from MOMedgesSet, but only the latter becomes initialized to deal with MOMnetEdges only. MOMnet inherits that initialization from MOMnetEdge. -- Previously, there had been a need to tell every derived class explicitly which kind of items it should deal with although a developer would have expected the class to know that because of its anchestry/because its parent was for item class X, hence any child should be like that too. So, the change makes the framework meet that intuitive presumption: Now, children of HomogenousSetDerivatesInfrastructure know the class of the items to deal with.

A minor improvement was to add some output methods to the framework. Additionally, MOMedgesSet now can export to dotty, a graph visualization tool.

Last not least, I extracted changelogs from my local subversion repository for earlier check-ins to the public repository and added them to there too.
