Just glad you're ok :) You did disappear kind of suddenly.

waffle-master:
Over-linking cleanup, drop the LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES hack [1].


waffle-next:
One out of two big pull requests sent out [1].


waffle-next:
A couple of "nice to have" features.
 * Start of "Don't explicitly link to libraries" - github issue 9.
 * Add waffle_finish() to complement waffle_init(), suggested by Chad - TODO
 * Add make check-{func-,}valgrind, suggested by Chad - TODO.

[1] There are some loose patches floating around that are short on review.
Should I prep a list here, or you're going to ping me on IRC when you have the
chance ?

Cheers,
Emil
P.S. Preliminary time-schedule looks good imho.
