The project is still alive but distracted from other sources now
 (listed above), I think we may sacrifice deprecated variant and will
 check how to bring a maintained version. No strong opinion to
keep still working ones or delete them.

… наш разум - превосходная объяснительная машина которая способна найти
смысл почти в чем угодно, истолковать любой феномен, но совершенно не в
состоянии принять мысль о непредсказуемости.
