Hi there. I am that "someone". CBT is coming along very nicely. It is growing into a nice little community. We are working on getting the last bugs out and establishing the basic range of important plugins right now https://github.com/cvogt/cbt/ https://github.com/cvogt/cbt/ CBT is very developer friendly, fast, simple, easy to use. Join us on gitter https://gitter.im/cvogt/cbt https://gitter.im/cvogt/cbt or check out my Scala Days talk about it :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5COKEp7ItZk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5COKEp7ItZk
