There was a whole book written about the failure of Chandler: Dreaming in Code.

  I just finished reading most of this book, didn't make it all the way through. I had a goal of reading it before 1.0. Interesting story, and I'm sure most people would see at least a few parallels to their own projects.

  Yes, I've read some of it (had to put it down because it was simply too painful to think about so much wasted effort). I once followed the project with interest. I was on the mailing lists, read the docs, checked out the early code, etc. I perhaps take it too personally because I did expect great things from the Chandler team. I just expected those great things five years ago.
