Unfortunately, lots of dead great projects. IMHO, a monument to
them should be set up.
Reasons:
1. If a project failed because of some design issues (e.g.
Descent) new developers should be informed about a danger of
this approach and ways to fix it (links to discussions of
making a library from a compiler).
2. If a project failed because of past compiler bugs, lack of
developers (DDL?) or other solved/solvable things, new
developers should be able to easily find and start reanimation
of this project.
Any thoughts?
Great idea. In particular, I would be interested to have more
information about Descent :)
