Personnel
gollark: In any case, Παλαιολόγος™ does not seem to maintain a list of private projects and information about them so people can actually know what stuff might be available if they were interested in paying to use it.
gollark: Is that a bad thing?
gollark: What?
gollark: Is it, though? It might be more effort to monetize it somehow than it would be to release it so people can benefit from it.
gollark: I need a way to make macros for that.
