The repo is a fork from the last update in previous maintenance (cyclone version 0.2beta1), which was on its own a fork from cyclone's repo for version 0.1-Alpha56 (available in Pd Extended).
Fred did a large amount of work in bring cyclone forward, build-wise and bug wise. Why wouldn’t you start with his work? Seems like a step backwards after all of this...
That's what's happening! It's from 0.2beta1 and on, not 0.1-Alpha56, I was just trying to be accurate in the genealogy of repositories. Fred did a great amount of work departing from 0.1-Alpha56 - available in Extended and in this original repository https://git.puredata.info/cgit/svn2git/libraries/miXed.git/ - he forked it to https://github.com/electrickery/pd-cyclone and started working on it. A 0.1-Alpha57 is also available and was provided by him, but this is marked as "unreleased" in the puredata.info website and only the 0.2beta1 (current state of his repo) is now available via deken.
By the way, I also think there are lessons to be learned, and I have to admit I'm not used to dealing and negotiating in a collaboration of free software like this. I'm really unaware of the common practice regarding ethics, politics, etiquete and all. I hope to learn from this episode and you all, and I also hope you can cope with me eventually not knowing better, any constructive criticism of any of my actions are hihgly welcome. thanks...
