+ScalaDocs
+---

+Documentation for scala-swing included in 2.11.1 is can be found [here](http://www.scala-lang.org/api/2.11.1/scala-swing/#scala.swing.package)

+Other version can be found at [http://www.scala-lang.org/documentation/api.html](http://www.scala-lang.org/documentation/api.html) 
+
+
+Current Work
+---
+
+Current changes are being made on the **java7** branch. This is to mainly because of the EOL of java6 and the generification that happened between jdk6 and jdk7 requiring a difference in the source code. This class files are targeted at java6 and will run with all versions upwards.
