As mentioned, since Pippy is pretty old or rather based on rather old 
code base, can it be assumed that not much is happening at this front?

This might be dumb to ask then, does anyone know if Pippy had been used 
in any noticeable form for Palm development anywhere? Or it's more of an 
proof of concept kind of thing? Or has anyone envisioned anything?
