Good point. The different versions will end up diverging as they take
advantage of their environments. Ultimately, each implementation will be
its own project. They can share requirements and high-level design. Will
we run into problems where one team adds lots of new features with the other
teams playing catch-up? Maybe, but I don't see it happening the other way.
Maybe I should make this a declaration: no implementation of FreeTrade shall
be hindered by the inadequacies of any other!
