Any background / context around what the Chicory author means in this comment?

> We'll consider merging in changes that make sense from Endive, but under the stewardship of the [Byte Code Alliance] I have very little faith in its future. My words mean nothing though having all but completely lost interest and use for WebAssembly.

What's the background / history of Byte Code Alliance?

Not everyone is on board with CORBA but with WebAssembly, which is basically what the reboot of the component model is, so probably that.

The AssemblyScript folks have a similar opinion.

yeah that is roughly the concern, many runtimes didn't want to continue on past wasip1, mostly because of the component model.
