Is Scotty healthy?  Here's what Juergen wrote at the end of January 2002:
"Seriously, I am only occasionally using Tnm at the moment myself and
hence there is little forward progress. On the other hand, the stuff
people are using seems to work relatively well and if someone reports
a real bug which is easy to fix, then a fix is going into the CVS
version relatively quickly. There are of course things I would do
different these days - but since I am not regularily using Tnm at
the moment, there is little energy to work on improving things.
(And the people using Tnm probably like this since it gives real
stability. ;-)

The 2 year thing is that I never managed to get 3.0 out of the door
and hence the official version described on the Web page is still
2.1.X, even though many people are using 3.0 snapshots and putting
them in distributions. In retrospect, I should have released 3.0 two
years ago even though I felt it is not ready at that time since
the current situation is just confusing."

Yes, Scotty is healthy, in the sense that plenty of people are
putting it to quite serious uses.  As [Ashwin Baskaran] has written,
even without updates, 
"Scotty is as 'commercial quality' as it gets."
