> Something wonderful happened on the road leading to 3.0: Offpunk became a true cooperative effort. Offpunk 3.0 is probably the first release that contains code I didn’t review line-by-line.

I felt true dread reading a sentence like this. I had to reread to make sure the author means there are other trusted contributors now.

As it is often the case these days, some projects are quite proud of announcing that no human has written or reviewed their code.

OP here: Didn’t even come to my mind while writing this. This would be totally against the philosophy of the projects.

Don’t worry: I wanted to celebrate humans cooperating over good old emails to write code in their editor without any help ;-)
