Fsck that. They can come help Specimen, which is fully usable now, if
not feature rich. Or they can work on SimSam (simsam.sf.net). Not to
be a polemicist, but I predict this will go the way of Octal
(www.gnu.org/software/octal). Too much planning, too little product.
Failing that, when it does reach maturity in a few years, I'll just
whore the read-from-disk and network control code from 'em.
Considering how far Specimen has come in a few months of hacking
(mostly part time, since I was between colleges and working full time
at a *movie theater* for the first two months), that will probably be
the only advantage it has.
Bwahahaha!
