This is nice for you. And for me, too, if deps are finally coming into SM.

But this is also discouraging for my own coding: last night I've started
with classes
  DepSVersion, DepSTransformation, DepSPerformer,
but now I think it makes no sense to continue.

My idea has been to just make a backend with a clearly separated
interface to be used by SM and other tools, with the main target SM.

But if you have started to make your own thing, why should I continue?
To compete with a part of software from you, where you decide to use
yours or mine? I know, which I would use in such a situation...

Don't understand me wrong: I can understand that you've just started
without making yourself dependent from others.


Possibly I've misinterpreted your call for help in this area.


Greetings
Stephan
