No, I do not accept this. I do not think it is in the project's best
interests, I do not think it is in computer science's best interests,
and I do not think it is in the public interest. That is why I am
banging on the door (nice phrase) and trying to persuade them
otherwise. (Note: not

True. If I'm writing code I probably want to be sitting at a desk to do it.
And I imagine Gauss or Euler sitting at a desk in the middle ages
writing on parchment, not trying to scribble something down on a
notebook while barreling down the streets in their equivalent of a
daily commute.
Still,
To see how far you can scale visual node programming I recommend looking at
Pure Data, Quartz Composer, and LabView. Also interesting is Little Big Planet.

Perhaps someone from VPRI should comment and explain their reasons of not
releasing much, and certainly not often.
They did comment last time I raised the same question, so you can
check the archives. If they are of the same mind now, there's little

And how much engagement do you get? Not a lot, if you look at the

I think that the fundamental problem is that keyboards are good for entering

Artists and musicians tend to heavily favor visual node based programming,
