As far I know, it is Pete's choice not to work on OpenEu project.


The fine exact point of it being open source may have nothing to do with his choice.

I don't see where it was indicated otherwise (or by who).

The entire list of issues may boil down be that he'd haveto redo all of his work,

Agreed.

in an alien environment,

Agreed.

Well, it might not be that alien in a personal sense - Pete's probably familiar with GCC and friends at least - but I think what you meant is that OpenEuphoria is totally different from Phix's self-hosting environment.

on different OSs,

I disagree. He works on Windoze, I don't see why that'd have to change if he did move to OpenEuphoria.

and be constantly overridden by the existing dev team of Open Euphoria. He'd haveto be a hell of a masochist, with a lot of time to spare, to do it.

That's not what Pete said: http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/117074.wc

I think Jeremy's response to Pete then is still relevant here and now: http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/117085.wc

Anyways, I suspect the strongest component is Pete's available free time - if he doesn't even have time to fix links on his own websites, I can see how he'd be hard pressed to commit to OpenEuphoria as a major developer.
