Some days, I feel like I woke up after a 5 year nap, and wonder where all
these new projects came from.  I've heard of zope, though I have no idea
what it is.  Never even heard of plone or ESRO.  *chuckle*

You blink for a -few- seconds...and look what happens!

More a case of tightly focused interest, I suppose, but it really can make
one feel like they've lost touch in a hurry.  This really fast
proliferation of so many OSS projects is exactly what has made sourceforge
and freshmeat more useless than CPAN, IMHO.  It's incredibly hard to keep
up with the ever-more-crowded arena of OSS software.  The only thing worse
is how many projects are started and then abandoned, leaving the trail of
breadcrumbs even harder to follow to what you need.

Just some musings.
