Guess I should formally bow out. It’s been pretty clear for a while that I wasn’t going to finish in time. I chose the wrong tools for the job. But on the bright side, because of this I had to write a lot of stuff that I can certainly reuse later, and I still intend to work on this project because it’s one of those rare ideas I have that are actually doable rather than pie-in-the-sky. Hopefully I can keep up the momentum, though I’ve got some other stuff I need to prioritise, so we’ll see.
