Sorry, forgot. Will do. Is there reasoning behind this I can read? |

Sorry, reasoning behind having to discuss on Google Groups rather than here.

There are three links in process-bot's message above that point to documents detailing Evan's preferred work mode. They don't contain much reasoning, I think. But there's this talk of his on collaboration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSjbTC-hvqQ&list=PLglJM3BYAMPH2zuz1nbKHQyeawE4SN0Cd&index=1
Beyond that, you would probably have to ask on the mailing list.

I remember thinking "Just" was weird. It hinted to me that it was doing something other than just being the counterpart to Nothing. It still sounds weird to me when I hear it being explained to others. "Something" (as in the phrase "something or nothing") makes more sense to me as a counterpart to Nothing. Could we rename Maybe.Just to Maybe.Something?
