I don't know if you consider me to be one of those folks, or not. However, if I am, I believe a common thread for at least one person will be: Fix what's broke, don't fix what's not broke. [This is orthogonal to "ad-hoc" vs. "highly bureaucratized".] However, I will grant the possibility that some developers are solely concerned about the "ad-hoc" vs. "highly bureaucratized" axis. -- Raul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
