Nice work!
First, one thing: I'd like to propose to have two messages: to users
and developers. Only the latter would mention GUI/engine separation
and stuff like that. If we start doing the separation for any
announcement, we can escape from the 'geek' area.
Simple test: just give the text to read to your family and see what's
a like black magic to them, then improve incrementally.
