"It hardly seems worth even having a bug system if the frequency of
from-scratch rewrites always outstrips the pace of bug fixing. "

I wish I was better at "from-scratch rewrites ". Poor old WWWJDIC still
has much of the code from its 1998 launch, and quite a bit of it came
from xjdic (1992) with even a few lines from JDIC (1990). Maybe in my
next 'carnation I'll get the energy for a Web 3.0 rewrite.

OTOH, I tend not to get much regression...
