Bruce has been slowly improving prototypes and such throughout the system, and it's in the nature of such work to occasionally be underfoot. I doubt whether Steven even knew that Bruce was still in there. > IMHO, it really should have waited till after 2.1 was out, because David > has explicitly requested to hold back on importing stuff as it was making > his life difficult.

Well, there's no code freeze on 2.2 that I'm aware of - work should be allowed to go forward in 2.2-current. I think David's objections are more to all the commits with the little "please put this in 2.1" postit notes attached. AFAIK, Steven has no intention of trying to get this into 2.1. > Still, hopefully we end up with a more complete ibcs2 as a result.. :-) Yes, that's my attitude. Motion in -current is good, even if it sometimes takes awhile to get it going in exactly the right direction(s). Let's see what positive progress we can make out of Steven's commit now - I'm eager to see which binaries we can run now! :) Jordan
