gollark: Minoteaur 1 is the original JS implementation with server rendering and selfreplicators. 2 is a Rust thing which was meant to be client rendered and did not really happen. 3 and 4 are variants of a more TiddlyWiki-inspired design or something. 5 is a server rendered Rust one which doesn't work well. 6 is a server rendered Nim one which works badly in different ways. 7 is Python and 7.1 is Python with a different architecture.
gollark: I forgot the exact ordering, but 2 is on my disk somewhere, 3 and 4 are very similar and also there, and 5 is on my disk somewhere.
gollark: Minoteaur 1 and 6 are publicly available.
gollark: I have not bothered to publicly release it yet.
gollark: The main issue is that the rest of the stuff I have to implement is kind of boring but there are vast quantities of it.
