The worrying thing that caught my eye was:
WASTE Text Engine © 1993-2000 Marco Piovanelli This document and accompanying software and interface design, additions, other documents, and changes we have made to WASTE and Python © 2001 Jef Raskin. When completed, the changes will be made available in accord with the agreements covering the use of Python and WASTE. Various parts of this work are covered by one or more patents and patents pending.
I'd like to see something like this spread and evolve, but I
think the patents, unless explained (as defensive?) will put
a big damper on that.
