They got 2 different goals. SiegeLord wants to keep as much of 
original Tango as possible and make it D2-wish while mt'chrono 
changes Tango itself, because he thinks something is 
wrong-designed (or he doesn't get idea properly). tango.net.* for 
example. That's all, that's why there are 2 branches.

And SiegeLord's branch *IS* built on top of druntime. Extra 
features that Tango runtime had, are inside version blocks, so 
you may want use them also :) But out of box it works with 
druntime without any additional steps.
