Dave Winer created MORE, the outliner that gave Leo clones as well as its appearance (pixel for pixel). He's a vip in the computer world. His outliners are more mainstream than Leo is, which is commendable ;-) Winer sold MORE to (iirc) Symantec for $10 million, which promptly killed it. You can't make this stuff up... BTW, MORE, and the original versions of Leo implemented clones by creating copies of all cloned tree. I know this because there is a characteristic (slow) speed that results. In contrast, in Leo's present outline organization, inserting, deleting or moving *any* node is instantaneous, a matter of changing less than a dozen links (node references).
