I was looking back on some of my old blog posts from 2021 earlier1, and I came across something that I thought bears repeating.
It was from this post, and the section I though was worth re-visiting was called “Caveat Emptor”.
It was about how my open source projects are often unfinished, and unpolished, and very much work in progress.
What I said then still applies today, and I’ll repeat it below.

After my last post, I thought a bit more about Release Tools, and decided that requiring a tag was definitely the right way to go, and over a couple of days last week I implemented it.
I also decided that it was a big enough change that I may as well call this Release Tools 4.0, and take the opportunity to clean up and remove some legacy code.
My latest detour was to add an extra option to ReleaseTools, a command-line tool, written in Swift, that I made a few years ago.
Actually I’ve just checked, and I started it in 2019 🤯.
Ok, I admit it, I’ve been tinkering with AI again.
Not using it, this time, but trying to add it to my app The Stack.
Meanwhile, back at Chaos Towers: work continues on The Stack, but I’ve also got a bit distracted by returning to Dual Universe (sort of)…
