If you created a large, successful OSS project, would you want to be BDFL or move on after a period? I see tradeoffs on both sides, although it's not a decision I've needed to make myself.

`init` feels like an unhelpful name in OO. It doesn't give you an initial value, it initialises the instance that has already been created. Developers are often surprised that init doesn't return the instance, because they have a strong association with `new Foo()`. Perhaps `finish` would have been a less confusing name?
