I am trying to eject stale topics out of my tree, and the discussion
on this topic is about to pass the 1-month mark.  It seems that
comments on half of them are "looks good" and the rest are "just as
confusing as the original without improvement".  How viable is this
topic?  Are we still improving on it, or has it long passed the
point of diminishing returns that nobody is interested in polishing
it any longer?

Thanks.
