I find the situation being like at university looking for
grants or funding, and constantly being told. 'Oh yes, it is
important what you are doing, and you must keep doing it as it
is pivotal for future success. But no, we won't help you.'
I wish I could do something to help, but unfortunately I can't
think of much for now. (C++ coding and learning compiler
internals exceeds what's possible as things stand). If things
should take off on the business front, I'll try to help where I
can, but that's a matter of a few years in the best case.
Anyway, I very much appreciate the work of you and your
colleagues on GDC.
