	If you are asking such questions, you are too lazy. :) A 25k program might
take you 1.5 full years of all of your spare time. It might be
significantly shortened if you are strong in programming & design. 15k? You
need to study go, and that may take 1 additional year.
	I started go programming, say, 5 years ago, but have not released a single
version yet. :) The first 4 years were basically occasional studies about
go programming. I started my real implementation about 1 year ago, and if I
am lucky, will have version 1.0 in 6 months with a strength of maybe 25k.
:) Hopefully will improve it to 15k a year later, then 20 years to 1k! :)
	But it's a lot of fun.
