Well, at least one person didn't :/
Hah - I had actually forgotten that Open Language had been presented in
an NDA session at a conference (the year before the KickStarter campaign
if I remember correctly - 2012).
My crit. (which is my usual crit. about the Kickstarter) was aimed at
a feeling that
RunRev were so enthusiastic about the Kickstarter they merrily 'said'
all sorts of things,
that later, in "the cool light of reason" may have been seen to be a
bit unwise, or
should have been stated in more measured terms.
There is a prototype version of the Open Language parser which I
developed - it is currently sitting on my hard-drive. It was
demonstrated in the NDA session - so we have definitely not been
spouting 'hot air'.
There are various reasons why it has not appeared yet - the primary one
being that it has taken us a lot longer to do the work on the engine so
that the engine can support it than we originally projected.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
