Currently the whole code for liquidshell is done for one person, and we (as in the KDE Sc) suffer for a lot of good projects and ideas that as soon as the original developers get tired the project stalls, like Macaw Movie, Spectacle, Baloo and quite a few others - so I'm really afraid of a one-man-project that's basically what other many projects already do.
