So: Mu. Ask a different question. You have dependencies. You will always have them. Choose them thoughtfully. Invent where it matters most to you, and re-use where it does not, and where you can benefit from somebody else's care & testing. Talk your employers into sponsoring the important ones if you can, because that will improve their quality. Probably. There is no such thing as free-as-in-lunch software. FIN
