I can see your point, but I'd rather look forward in this case. Looking back,
does not make any sence here, as the past is disturbing enough as it is
(aspell,
pspell - new Aspell - GNU Aspell).
There are two possible scenarios at present:
1) Kevin will grow tired of this product and drop it, leaving latest source in
the GNU source repository, without any maintainer.
2) Another maintainer will come forth and the GNU package lives on as GNU
aspell.
So - it's not such a bad idea, to already introduce this, since in 6 months
time,
powered by GNU marketing(tm), 'nobody' will know 'pspell' anymore and
--with-pspell will make as little sense as some of you think --with-gnu-aspell
is now.
