This reminds me of an April Fools thing I planned on doing but never executed. I was going to implement the next generation codebase for /bin/true -- shared library, autoconf/automake/libtool project, language bindings for everything under the sun. Oh, also a networking model, so you could determine truth over a network socket. Of course, you'd have to have an obvious bug in the protocol so that someone could implement a DDOT (distributed denial of truth) attack. Release it April 1st one year, and then, the next year, announce a schism in the TrueNG community because of disagreements on the future of the codebase, and say that the project is being forked. It was funny in my head, anyways. In practice, given the state of such things, I think it would be believable enough that the joke would be lost on people... - -- Benjamin Reed a.k.a.
