As far as I'm aware the original owner of fish (Axel Liljencrantz) kind of
vanished and nobody reading this list has write access to the darcs repo.

Just to check: Is there anyone reading this who has access to either the
darcs repository, the wiki on fishshell.org, or the fish shell
sourceforge.org project???



Barring that, the gitorious repo has basically become 'upstream', I guess.
As far as I'm concerned, I'd say anyone who has useful patches should be
allowed to put them in, and stable stuff should go into master.

The only problem I see is that designing language like things such as the
shell language generally doesn't work very well if it's done by multiple
people, and there is not one lead BDFL. On the other hand, I don't think
there's a lot that still needs to be added to the language. But if we do, we
should think twice about any change.

Beautiful is writing same markup. Internet Explorer 9 supports
standards for HTML5, CSS3, SVG 1.1,  ECMAScript5, and DOM L2 & L3.
