Thanks! I thought this felt familiar. 2023 is a long time to still be in this "Initial signs are promising" mode. There are no code commits since March 2025.

I've had projects which stalled for a few months or even a year, but generally if I said I'll get to it "soon" and two years later I haven't, that's not getting done. There are two boxes of books I planned to unbox "soon" after discovering that the bookshelves for my new flat were full & so I had nowhere to put them. That was when Obama was still President of the United States of America. Don't expect me to ever get around to unboxing those books, I clearly haven't even missed them.
