"back to" who's kidding who?
The development model for arch/larch/tla for the last 2.5-3 years has
been:
while 1:
sleep() /* project sits stale - people fix bugs, submit patches for
* new features; patches sit around in personal archives
* unmerged
*/
third_party_work() /* someone steps forward and tries running
* forward with the project--merging patches
* so that end users don't have to piece together
* all the bug fixes and features they need
*/
tom_awakes() /* flame war ensues */
tom_works() /* like mad, leaving third_party in dust, but not
* without leaving plenty of lose ends and todos
*/
continue
tell me more about forward progress...
