> Something like Genera was a huge pile of Lisp code written during 1.5 decades. During its best times the OS and maintenance upgrades were already more expensive than a PC. Genera's biggest contemporary problem is that John C. Mallery seems to want to just sit on it rather than make it available to people. Likely future revenues must be close to nil, so why not open source it? Apparently he talked about it years ago but never actually has. Yes, a lot of the code is really dated, but if it were open source, maybe some people might freshen some of it up. |
