in any case, FLOSS for me is also about a lot about learning.
i know only a single effective way to learn to code, and that is by
getting your hands dirty: no amount of books and *reading* code will
ever teach you anything. you have to write code. and if you don't want
to keep writing "99 bottles of beer on the wall", you probably should
get some decently written project and hack your way in.

and i'm sure that when it comes to "decently written software", there
are a lot worse projects someone could choose than aeolus.

so my hope is, that whoever forks aeolus will learn more than just
appropriating others' code. hopefully some time they will even learn how
to properly name variables.
