I stand corrected. From your original replay above, I thought you 
meant we're doing this all wrong for the current implementation.

I read your answer, yes, but for which question :)

No it doesnt; you can continue on that trend - this is something to chew
on.

Typically around this time of the season - if you wanna call it that - a
new stable release is on the table being eaten(2.6.x), people start
talking at the table about what that next meal would constitute ;-> So
you didnt like the vegetables or the amount of salt added? you make it
known then. Of course you are not the cook - but in the Linux world its
ok to criticize the cook hopefully they can make a better meal next
time;-> 
Its also OK to criticize the food while it is being cooked. 
The beauty of it is the cook doesnt listen to your feedback or doesnt
provide enough convincing why the food has so much salt, then you can
convert yourself into a cook as well and provide alternatives ;->

I hope that is a good analogy and sorry I assumed you were synced in
that 'twas that season.

cheers,
