My original plan -- as I tried to communicate to Tim last week -- was pricesely that we should make the process modula so that we have the kind you subdivision you are proposing even if "make" just ends up doing the whole. I have seen *successful lagre projects* (much larger and complex than Axiom) work that way. Axiom is painting itself in a coerner that can only harm it. -- Gaby _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list Axiom-developer@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
