> Could this be a positive change? It's normal and expected evolution of protocols and software. Generation 1: New idea, new implementation. As people become comfortable with the new idea it gains in acceptance and hype. Try to keep it simple and fast, but it's a exercise in exploration and it gains technical debt faster then it gains new features. Generation 2: Widespread acceptance and commercialization. Groups inside large corporations, and sometimes entire businesses, spring up around the new idea. They re-implement the idea to reduce technical debt and add flexibility. Features are piled on to make it marketable. Eventually becomes heavy and unwieldy. Generation 3: Hype train dies down and people have learned what really matters and what really should be focused on. Third generation is lean, fast, and 'correct'. It becomes ubiquitous, people stop caring about it and people stop paying for it. It becomes just something that is always there and ends up little more then a building block for the next new idea.
