I've written a bit of retrospective on creating the new version of Base. It covers a bunch of mistakes and some things that went well. Hopefully it'll be useful to others, whether as example or warning!

Retrospective on making Base 3

The first version of Base was released in late 2008. It grew into a v2 by early 2011 and kept going until the last feature release in 2020 (with a few bugfix releases after). On the 4th July 2020, I started a new branch for Base v3.
