I think it's referring to the performance-orientated nature of modern cycling. Like many sports it has become a highly technical pursuit that requires exceptional levels of attention to detail.
I'm interested what the data shows for workplace productivity and quality (not just quantity) in such an environment. Specifically in engineering, is there not evidence to suggest that longer hours and more pressure does not get more done? (e.g. Peopleware et al)
It's not a reimplementation but a gradual publish of existing code, upgraded to meet the required standards (some of it was not written with being open in mind).
WPF will not be available on non-Windows platforms. That has always been the case and will remain so - it has a far to deep integration with the OS for it to ever be platform independent and a reimplementation would be an absolutely ginormous effort.
If the authors have genuinely copied CSS and icons (I haven't checked) then I would expect Trello Inc. to pursue the authors for copyright infringement (justifiably).
The point is to be very precise with the criticism. Is the work stolen (protected by copyright law) or is it just a convincing clone?
I am in the UK and had previously purchased from the US. This morning I got an e-mail offering me health reports (based on my previous test results). Very nice.
Every time I begin to explore using RDF and the associated technologies for a knowledge rich problem I always find the tool support a major disappointment. I understand there are exceptions (4store is a good example of a mature triple store) but generally speaking I always leave feeling much of the core tools never made it out of academia. And in a world where development time is a precious commodity, I always end up going with a lower friction but ultimately less powerful technology.
