We already shipped a sophisticated set of logging classes some month ago.
Since then, its features have been enhanced, and the system has been deeply interfaced with our main ORM framework. Now almost all low-level or high-level operations can be logged on request.
But since the log files tend to be huge (for instance, if you set the logging for our unitary tests, the 6,000,000 unitary tests creates a 280 MB log file), a log viewer was definitively in need.

For those how are interested in FireMonkey, I made some screenshots of some DXScene sample app.
It may give you some good starting point about the features of the upcoming Delphi XE2 user interface components.

The framework documentation was just updated.
The general organization of the SAD document (which is the one to be read in all cases) has been refreshed, and is now separated in smaller chapters.
The new official name has been changed into "Synopse SQLite3/mORMot framework"...

Everybody is buzzing about FireMonkey...
Our little mORMot will like FireMonkey!
Here is why...

Our ORM RESTful Framework is about to access any available database engine.
It will probably change its name (since it won't use only SQlite3 as database), to become mORMot - could be an acronym for "Manage Object Relational Mapping Over Tables", or whatever you may think of...
We'll still rely on SQLite3 on the server, but a dedicated mechanism will allow to access via OleDB any remote database, and mix those tables content with the native ORM tables of the framework. A flexible Virtual Tables and column mapping will allow any possible architecture: either a new project in pure ORM, either a project relying on an existing database with its own table layout.

For our ORM framework, we implemented an efficient SQLite3 wrapper, joining statically (i.e. without any external dll) the SQLite3 engine to the executable. SQLite3 is in fact used as the DB kernel of the framework. For instance, thanks to its unique virtual table mechanism, even tables in other databases (like Oracle or MSSQL) are available as if they were SQLite3 tables.
We just made this wrapper independent from our ORM, in a new dedicated unit,
named
SynSQLite3.pas.
It was an easy task to let this unit be called from our SynDB database abstract classes.

If you want to implement an HTTP client access in your application, you may consider several choices:
For our ORM, we tried to avoid external dependencies, and did not have the
need of all Indy's features and overhead.
We fist wrote our own WinSock wrapper, then tried out
WinInet.
When used on our testing benchmark, we found out that WinINet was
dead slow.
Then we tried WinHTTP, the new API provided by Microsoft, and we found
out this was blazing fast. As fast as direct WinSock access,
without the need of writing all the wrapper code.
