I am going to be sore tomorrow - I played my first game of tennis in a long time (two years? I remember playing in Vegas in 2003) today.

On the mental exertion front, I got v3 of my DSL tools project out the door today. The big change is the shift to a hybrid CodeModel / IL approach for building an XML representation of the solution in Visual Studio. This solves quite a few subtle problems and makes the tool a lot friendlier to use. I did have to counter quite a few mismatches between the CodeModel (e.g. source code) and IL names for things like constructors, class constructors, and explicit interface implementations, but it is working pretty well now.

I also spent a couple of hours revisiting a paper I wrote in October 2004 which now looks like it will be published: I was suprised that it all pretty much made sense, even though I don't think I had written a line of code at the stage. Anyway, hopefully that paper will see the light of day before I get the urge to mess with it again.
