No. As others have said, if phk and I agree, the world will come to an end. I'm saying: 1. Yes, let people hack at it and improve on it outside the source tree. 2. If it works, don't fix it. At the moment, Vinum works, for some definition of "works". These two aren't incompatible. Removing existing functionality for the sake of purity, on the other hand, is unnecessary. Sadly, much as I love the discussion, I have this conference next week, starting in less than 12 hours, and I need to sleep first. Unless the shit hits the fan, don't expect to hear from me for a week.
