For years I have told Rebecca that little remains to do with Leo. For years 
I have found interesting and rewarding work to do. It's become a joke 
between us.

Now, however, there is nothing on my plate that excites me. The full 6.3 
to-do list 
<https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+milestone%3A6.3>
 
contains about a dozen routine items. The 6.4 to-do list 
<https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+milestone%3A6.4>
 
is even less exciting. I don't care whether any of the 6.4 items ever gets 
done.

In part 2 
<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/leo-editor/SLVX-GHa9Q8/ZQqIJK0eBAAJ> I 
said that 2020 would be the year of the bridge. I have given this matter a 
great deal of thought recently, and I have concluded 
<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/leo-editor/q-yeIneq_IM/LwdaCdH7BAAJ> that 
such bridges make no sense.

*Innovation*

There is one, and only one, essential requirement for innovation—an 
interesting, juicy problem. I see no such problem on the horizon.

Sure, Leo's code base could be improved. Imo, major refactorings of Leo's 
code base would be dangerous make work. Yes, it could be done. The 
foundation would be bespoke scripts that would verify that the old code is 
equivalent to the new. But this kind of project has no personal appeal.

*Summary*

No juicy, important, interesting problem relating to Leo is in view.

Maybe finding such a problem is what's next for me. Or maybe my work on Leo 
is nearing an end.

I'll let you know what develops.

Edward
