If someones already doing it, why bother with a new project? Doesn starting a new one just dilute effort?
Since Metropolis isn’t working with a traditional open source approach (make a rough prototype with a small team, try to attract developers based on that.) we don’t really see the project as “competing” with others. Most projects are trying to attract volunteer developers, while we are more interested in attracting funding. Essentially we are working towards the same goal from different angles. Naturally, we also believe we have a better chance of success with our method, or we wouldn’t have bothered.
