Licas was developed as a lightweight framework that can be used in mobile or sensor-based environments.
The architecture and adaptive capabilities through dynamic linking add something new to what other similar systems provide.

· Also some Const values changed back to a full name. TYPE is 'Type' again, for example. So the Code Analyzer app, or existing metadata scripts will probably have to be re-done in the near future, ...
