I can see that now that youve mentioned it - but that's not the
context in which I answered it.
There are many futures being pursued. Some will pan out - some
won't. I can't really tell what will. I could go down the laundry
list of nifty efforts that will benefit me most - like exupery,
seaside, pier/magritte, better networking, traits... but you know
these as well as I do. Plus there are a number of pain points
around code management/modularity that could use attention. The key
is to stay alert and look for opportunities.
