Well, if this was an April fool's joke, it's above my head.

Anyhow, good work on a gargantuan project. Any plans for opening up the
source? If not, how do you plan on completing the project, in terms of
providing full support for all the internal functions, widgets, etc? It
seems to me that this would require either astronomical time scales, or
the effort of more than one mere mortal.

A brief sketch on the webpage showing the currently supported features
and the ones that are in development would be useful.
