		<description>For anyone who might be developing with this already, there are some structural changes from RC.3 to RC.4. Check the README.txt file for version history.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ace is a lightweight and powerful addon development system. It is a new approach to&lt;br /&gt;
addon development, a rethinking from the ground up. Ace provides developers with the&lt;br /&gt;
tools needed by most addons, freeing them from repeating common tasks and allowing&lt;br /&gt;
them to jump right into the creative part of building their addons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here is a brief list of its features:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Initializes the addon after variables and character data load.&lt;br /&gt;
- Simple, flexible, and powerful data management.&lt;br /&gt;
- Customizable chat command handling.&lt;br /&gt;
- Improved function and method hooking.&lt;br /&gt;
- Enhanced event handling with the ability to create custom events.&lt;br /&gt;
- In-game addon disabling and enabling.&lt;br /&gt;
- Easy saving of settings per character and per class.&lt;br /&gt;
- Debug features with optional module.&lt;br /&gt;
- Built-in myAddons support.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A new development kit is forthcoming in the next few days, until then you can get a slightly outdated version at http://www.wowace.com&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Documentation and examples on how to use Ace for development are included in the&lt;br /&gt;
development kit. The documentation is admittedly rough right now, but it and the&lt;br /&gt;
examples should provide you with a good base to start with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Brief Command List (detailed in the README.txt file)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
