There is no conspiracy. Make it happen. Check in with the people that
previously volunteered. Co-ordinate the project.
I was going to mention the (hypothetical) possibility of dedicating an
unstable dev branch for something like this--one whose sole purpose is
interoperability (maybe even MAMP and WAMP). If it struggles to progress,
not all is lost.
I just don't get people talking about things and not making them
happen. You have to be the change you want to see in this world.
Steps:
1. Write the code
2. Make the code available
3. Have people test the code
4. If the code is ready, find people that find it useful
5. Rince
6. Repeat
And if more developers are needed, take the Slashdot (subculture) approach:
1. Get pile of dirty underwear (for rinsing)
2. Send it somewhere up north, along with code
3. Somewhere up north, code makes programmer
4. ???
5. Profit!
Hmmm... In hindsight, it's too dense. Now my brain hurts...
Best wishes,
Roy
