As with the Smalltalk
meme<http://croquet.funkencode.com/2007/04/07/evolution-in-cyberspace-the-smalltalk-meme/>that
spawned it, Spoon's impact won't be based solely on quantity nor on
adoption by the people who would seem to benefit most from it. In fact, not
having been widely adopted has probably been a plus. When Spoon is
everywhere, there will be no Spoon.  Your committment to Spoon is inspiring.

Best,
