It probably IS indeed up to snuff. His lack of inspiration and absolute refusal
to try to compile anything is holding him back from actually testing what's
"currently" there for general use.

It seems as though he's just going to continue to complain and blame everyone
else for his system not working as he expects it to.

Regards,
Nick
