I couldn't find it in the archive quickly. Doug, myself and Steve Wise
were talking about it after Doug started.

Doug was ambivalent, Steve was against. There was a concern the natual
release schedual of the parts was different, so why link them.

My counter was that isn't really important, the goal is is to reduce
developer time when working on this mess.

Since we are looking at changing *everything* developer time seems
more important right now.
