There is a good discussion on the post I linked to about this. Lots of people are saying that this is a really good thing for the TextMate community. However, I'm not so sure. I realize that there is nothing anyone can do about it but if this editor take off on Win and Linux there is really nothing to stop him from porting to OS X too. I guess I've seen good intentions blow up in faces too many times to be excited about this. I can only hope that everything works out well for everyone, but I'm skeptical.

Is the account given on the site fully correct? Does anyone see any issues? Just thought I would ask before I jumped to any conclusions.
Yes -- I met with him for lunch a few weeks ago (we had sushi) and he showed me his editor.
It was weird to initially see the inType clone of my bundle editor, but seeing a scope tool tip on this windows editor was even more weird ;)
