	a program that works has,

	that places it,  in a way,
	outside the hands of its
	creator...

	perhaps it would be possible
	to develop a study of software
	independent of the intentions
	and personality of the creator
	of the software...which focuses
	on its characteristics as software!

	in such an
		impersonal
	study of software...preference might
	be given to avoidance of evaluation of
	provenance,  comments and the like!

	objective,  impersonal evaluation of
	software is largely attainable and might
	have real uses!
