* "Joel Baker" | I might argue, in the case of APIs, that it is more a case of "If you don't | have time to do it right, how will you ever have time to do it over" - it | becomes *very* hard to un-entrench bad API choices, a lot of the time.
people seem to have the misconception that d-i is one big block of code with common APIs inside. It is not. It is a bunch of loosely coupled modules with little common API or code (except for debconf interaction, that is). (Not necessarily pointing at you here.) -- Tollef Fog Heen ,''`.
