I have commited the connector context to CVS. At the moment it can be used to create basic straight-line connectors and interact with and modify existing connectors, i.e., reroute, detach, or attach to new shapes. At the moment connectors can just be attached to the center of shapes (though user placeable connection points are something I will work on later). This interface works works with loading and saving files, undo and redo, etc.
How can we test this code? How can we use it? How can we best be used in getting you feed back?
Have you added a page about your work to the wiki? That might help solve some of this and then let ppl. help you by adding content there.
The wiki suggestion is a good idea, but I can't do this at the moment due to the fact our wiki doesn't work (sourceforge read-only web filesystem).
My previous email describes how you can use and test the existing code, with the exception that it didn't specifically detail that you must enter the connector context to use the tool -- click on the button below the Dropper tool (no keyboard shortcut yet).
The mailing list can best be used in getting feedback by commenting on the current interface (after reading my planned changes in the previous email) and by suggesting features they want from this tool. You're right that the best way to discuss this is likely via the wiki once it returns to working.
