In the wannabuild case, having zero users resulted in bitrot. Not at all good, and that was why it was removed. The actual bugs in it are most likely fairly simple to fix--it just needs someone with the time to do it. Most are as a result of changes in other parts of the codebase. Note that the new wanna-build above uses PostgreSQL rather than MLDBM, so has a number of advantages over the old neuro version. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
