[PD] Zen Garden re-implementing the wheel in C++?

Hey List.

Just came across Zen Garden:

http://wiki.github.com/mhroth/ZenGarden/

Seems like the RJDJ crew is re-implementing PD in C++, in it's full
object-oriented glory.

I'm excited about the idea of a more object-oriented approach, and
especially with the idea of ditching all the Tk/Tcl garbage, but I
don't really see the utility of re-implementing all the DSP graph
code.

I haven't looked at the ZenGarden code at all yet though, so maybe
they're doing a lot of borrowing where it makes sense?

Maybe we can talk about this interesting development without a flame
war? Unlikely.
