miguel's hell of gratuitous rewriting

Miguel de Icaza writes of trying to get work done and his hunt for a reasonable (in speed, memory footprint, and capability) terminal emulator.

Essentially, people rewrote some of Miguel’s work. They were making it better in some way, but to Miguel it became worse. Part of the irony is that Miguel’s version was also a rewrite. And it seems especially painful because this is a project that Miguel started and that many people attribute to him.
