Mojo abandoned?

[Fursphere]

Mojo died because one of the testers went ape shit and decided to scream until he got his way and then refused to listen to developer feedback.

I don't blame Freddie for dropping it.

Heh, I have a friend who's been a software program manager for HP and a smaller ISV for about 10 years now. His efforts at keeping software focused on realistic features and actually shipping product have made me deeply appreciate anyone who can wrangle a piece of complex software that far along and in users' hands (even with a few bugs) in the relatively short amount of time Freddie spent on it.

If the above is what happened (re: uppity tester(s)), that's an awful shame and, sadly, all too often the fate of open-source (or weakly-managed commercial) products. Having learned that lesson on past projects, I'd much rather banz0r said tester than derail an entire project because one person's desire differs from everyone else's. If it's due to P1 bugs, that's one thing. Features are something else.

Ah well. Here's hoping things will pick back up again sometime with a better result.

I haven't decided to abandon Mojo. I just haven't felt like working on it lately.

Thanks for the update Freddie.
