Note

Starting from this release, no further implementation (commits) will occur in this repository.
Since the original YCS source code has been made available, all "YCS-cont" works have been migrated to this branch: https://github.com/pc035860/YCS/tree/ycs_cont_migration.
These changes will eventually be merged back into https://github.com/sonigy/YCS.
