Hello,

I added a paragraph about my work to integrate an SMT solver with the
constraint solver.

As far as I know, the work on 'data kinds' is stalled at the moment in part
due to lack of time, but also because we got a prototype working, but then
there were doubts if we'd taken the right approach.
