Thanks!
The documents highlight by Albert Rafetseder help me to find some answers.
From Miller's writing "The Deadly Embrace Between Music Software and
Its Users" (http://msp.ucsd.edu/Publications/pdf_EMS14_puckette.pdf), I
would synthetise as follow.
The three most important criteria in development of Pd:
* longevity:
o limit of maintainability < 100 000 lines of code (not 10 000
indeed !)
o usable lifetime of 50 years : avoid adding any but the most
carefully justified and planned extensions now
* new versions of Pd should run older patches compatibly (For me, it
sounds like the first criteria)
* Pd should never stop working unexpectedly during a live performance
