Hello Jarrett,

Creating releases, making sure the docs are on a website,
integrating patches, etc. of a project is always some
work.

I cannot afford to do this for another project on top of
doing this for Camelot, so for me the easiest thing to do
is to leave the code in Camelot, and then it's no additional
work.

So you don't need to do code maintenance per se (although
that would be nice of course).

The Elixir code for setting up the relationships correctly
is pretty nifty, so creating something new is a surprising
amount of work (I tried that first as well, but later on
decided it was easier to change Elixir itself)

Also Elixir is a good basis to implement custom patterns,
this is actually not documented, I only saw the pieces falling
together when studying the code.

So ...

Cheers,

Erik
