Introducing Miranda: Frequently Asked Questions

In preparation for a talk I'm giving at DOSUG I'm going to post my thoughts as they develop.  I thought I would pose and answer some miscellaneous questions.

• Why didn't you develop Miranda at Pearson?
• Does Miranda work with AWS?
• What is in store for the future of Miranda?
• Miranda really needs feature X!

Why Didn't you Develop Miranda at Pearson?

My managers were always talking about doing this in the next release.  When that rolled around they would talk about the one after that and so on.

Does Miranda Work with AWS?

Miranda was designed with AWS in mind so it should work with AWS.

What is in Store for the Future of Miranda?

That depends on whether it takes off as open source.  For right now, I am planning on adding some sort of rewriting syntax for subscriptions.

Miranda Really Needs Feature X!

If a feature is asked for enough times, I will added it to the system.  If you want something added right now, then you can fork Miranda on github. If you want me to do it, then you can hire me as a consultant to move your feature to the front of the list.
