Right now probably not much, it's WIP.

Having different project leadership is probably a big selling point ;)

What exactly went down with homebrew? Suddenly my employer was pulling it from every device and I never really got a solid explanation of why! I've not been able to get anything meaningful from searching on my own, obviously. Someone help a guy out?
