This is free software: the only person to decide where energy is best used is the person providing the energy. It may well be that Victor gives up after the first three steps, or it may be that he comes back with a working prototype in August. He may well find that his energy is *best* spent in this project, since it may get him a highly-payed job, a university diploma, or reputation. If not that, he'll learn a lot. > But definitely listen to Maciej's suggestion about concentrating > efforts with other people engaged in similar efforts, regardless :). Again, this thinking is flawed, IMO. It might be in the community's interest if people coordinate, but not in the interest of the individual contributor. > As your original message shows, there has already been enough > duplication of effort in this area. And that's not really a problem, IMO. Regards, Martin
