Why isn't DSSS ('s net portion) more widely used?

I can see it turning into something like CPAN, where you can easily get a module and its required dependencies, without really having to worry about version compatibility, etc, etc. ANy ideas on why it's not more widely used?

I too am interested in DSSS.  I'm a bit of a perfectionist... I've spent closer to 80 hours just tinkering with the architecture of Walnut 2.x; my issue would be with version control as well.  I would need it to allow me to produce several executables from the same source - a batch interpreter, an interactive interpreter, a dll com server jscript replacement, and a dll/lib spidermonkey replacement.  All of those ought to use the same sources.

Is that possible?
