Replace the Swift site generator with a Ruby and Phlex implementation. Loads site and projects from TOML, derive site metadata from posts. Migrate from make to bake and add standardrb and code coverage tasks. Update CI and docs to match the new workflow, and remove unused assets/dependencies plus obsolete tooling.

Such sensing devices are inherently also able to accommodate multiple users simultaneously, which is especially useful for larger interaction scenarios such as interactive walls and tabletops."

This is really amazing. Forget traditional tablet PCs... <i>this</i> is revolutionary and useful in so many applications. I hope this kind of technology is mainstream by 2015.
