I don't think this distinction is helpful.

Here's the deal.  Kadischi has always been open to further development, 
and will always be open to further development.  The problem with Kadischi 
has been, for a long time now, that no one was stepping up to take serious 
ownership/leadership of the project.

That's the biggest single problem we're looking to solve by moving to 
Pilgrim.  If a huge community should happen to grow up around Kadischi, I 
have absolutely no problem with that.  At all.  Zero.  I encourage it, in 
fact.

But Pilgrim is where the internal Red Hat momentum is, for a number of 
reasons.  My bet is that Pilgrim will improve quickly and dramatically, in 
a way that Kadischi never has.

If you have specific reasons for developing Kadischi, continue to develop 
and use Kadischi.  But unless you work some serious mojo, Pilgrim will be 
much stronger in three months.  That's just the facts, as I see it.
