It is a serious tool.  Just because it doesn't have every feature someone
thinks should be in it, or work the way they'd design it, doesn't keep
it from being a serious tool--nor does it make it any less viable as a
solution for many scenarios.

If having every useful feature were the criterion for being a serious tool,
we could laugh just about every piece of software off the market as
irrelevant, which is hardly the case.

I find this kind of derision, smiley notwithstanding, insulting.  At least
Ryan's doing something and putting it out there.  You've mentioned yours,
but I get the impression it's an in-house deal.  When yours is up and out
there for public consumption, then you can criticise others' with some
mild degree of authority.
