I agree with the anti-reactionist sentiment you and others have expressed. I would like to know how you believe an existing institution can evolve if not in response to recognizing an opportunity for growth, or need to address a shortcoming?

As shown by the different opinions expressed here, no one on the pmdev team is rushing off to make any hasty changes. Discussion helps because the issue is considered and potential responses (and reasons for inaction) vetted.

    I would say that development and evolution are almost opposites. Designing, building, testing and correcting and only releasing when you are sure is the way of the developer whereas accident is the mechanism of evolution. I always cringe when people say they want an organisation to evolve rather than develop :)
