#3> 3. It’s technically more work to maintain multiple projects
It's only more work if you haven't picked one. There haven't been a lot of people working on joyent/node over the last while, but there has been a growing crowd working on iojs. It seems to me that iojs is actually _less_ work than joyent/node because the barrier to entry is so much lower.
