TL;DR: do you have interest in reviewing and/or merging PR(s) that refactor cogapp without changing functionality?

Hey @nedbat - I'm currently interested in creating an offshoot of this package called cogshell (where the code snippets are shell code instead of Python 🙂). I would love to use this package's code as the processing engine, but it needs a bit of refactoring for that to work.

If I'm able to get around to performing some of that refactoring, will you be responsive to reviewing and/or merging a PR to that effect?

@vergenzt hmm, "perhaps." This project doesn't get much attention from me. The code is an archaic style, and I haven't needed to touch it much. We can certainly talk about next steps.
