Some in the community participated in the design. I called for feedback here, and some did, and others didn't.
I even did an initial design and waited about 10 months for feedback before starting implementation. The opportunity was certainly there. Even now if a really good bit of feedback comes along, or even a really good contribution, it'll go in (and some already have, like from Sam Hamilton for example). -David On May 2, 2011, at 4:33 PM, Adrian Crum wrote: > Except it's missing the "community participating in the design" part. ;-) > > -Adrian > > On 5/2/2011 4:30 PM, David E Jones wrote: >> Good idea.
