@bkuhn not [m]any TLA with no name collision. enwp.org/SFM a good start. BTW, is it just me, or is "space" usually superfluous, maybe wrong?

@mattl, the page is locked an appears to be using an old version of my bio. I emailed you the new bio, after one false start email. :)

What software holds record for greatest length of time between releases? What is the record? http://ur1.ca/883qt
about a day ago from web-
@vvillenave I was thinking between any release at all, including a bugfix release, but between "major" releases would also be interesting
-
@mlinksva WRT major releases, http://www.winehq.org/announce/1.0 comes to mind... But that's more of a symbolic 1.0 than anything else.
-
@vvillenave and there wasn't a previous "major" release. But maybe wine holds different record, for time till first major release.
