hi tim
i start realizing, that there are not only fundamental technical issues
i have with pd, but also issues about organizing stuff and consistency,
not to say that pd obviously has social issues, which i wasn't really
aware for a long time.
i don't know if you read the list, but making things more consistent in
pd's external repository is a topic, that keeps coming up and up again.
even if someone proposes to clear the mess, it turns out, that no person
could do that, but it would require some sort of higher instance (sorry,
this sounds esoteric, but there is really no way to get things sorted
out in pd world). it is not only about that it is messy, but the
structure is sometimes inconsistent in a manner, that something works in
one distro and does not in the other and vice versa, which really is a
pain.
anyway, what i want to say, that i feel like if things like these aren't
solveable anymore (at least not easy) and probably won't ever get
solved.
for above reasons i strongly encourage you to go on with the nova
project. and i also hope, that you take the chance to avoid such
troubles beforehand. what i think could be important, is to have some
guidelines about external naming (which is probably the main source of
all troubles in the pd world).
i am looking forward to the day, where i can switch from pd to nova.
yo, my 2¢ CAD
