While usually I'd agree with your snarky comment, I am genuinely curious about this too. It's not some yetanother.js hacked together in a night but years (decades!) of man hours.
What's pushing them and stopping from giving up?
- Sir_Cmpwn 11y agoI've done similar projects myself. The thing that pushes people like us is that it's fun and challenging work! There really doesn't have to be anything else.
- stryan 11y agoI believe the Russian Government has considered/is giving them support so that probably helps. Otherwise, a passion for the project and love of the craft most likely.
- TazeTSchnitzel 11y agoIt's almost all a volunteer effort. They get the odd donation from time to time, and they had a crowdfunding campaign, but they really don't get that much money.
- zem 11y agoi think once you get a critical mass of developers, the shared enthusiasm for the project is motivation enough to keep it going.
