And what we're doing is we're working our way up the stack.
And so the way I would look at Mojo today in May in 2023 is that it's like a 0.1.
So I think that, you know, a year from now, it's going to be way more interesting to a variety of people.
But what we're doing is we decide to release it early so that people can get access to it and play with it and we can build it with the community.
We have a big roadmap, fully published, being transparent about this, and a lot of people are involved in this stuff.
And so what we're doing is we're really optimizing for building this thing the right way.
And building it the right way is kind of interesting working with the community because everybody wants it yesterday.
And so sometimes it's kind of, you know, there's some dynamics there.
But I think it's the right thing.
Well, so I've been doing open development and community stuff for decades now.
Somehow this has happened to me.
So I've learned some tricks.
But the thing that always gets me is I want to make people happy, right?
And so this is maybe not all people all happy all the time, but generally I want people to be happy, right?
And so the challenge is that...
again, we're tapping into some long, some deep seated, long tensions and pressures, both in the Python world, but also in the AI world and the hardware world and things like this.
And so people just want us to move faster.
Right.
And so again, our decision was let's release this early.
Let's get people used to it or access to it and play with it.
