Terry, Vitalije, Ville Vainio, Bernhard Mulder, Kent Tenney, Marc-Antoine
Parent, Paul Paterson and others
<http://leoeditor.com/acknowledgements.html>have all made significant
contributions to Leo. By any reasonable measure, Leo is open software.

Leo's source code *is* difficult in places because it's always dealing with
the DAG. That can't be helped. Leo devs are special people.

The alternative isn't utopian simplicity, it's org mode.  There, everything
is a string.  This *can* work: org mode simulates Leo's structures using
filters.  It's a clever idea, but Leo's world is much richer.
