There's been a couple threads about it before. My opinion: it is garbage. It has maybe two or three good ideas in there, but on the whole, it is a very poor showing. The arrogant developers didn't do any research into prior art when designing it, and it shows - good ideas are absent without even a mention. Bad ideas remain in there saying "this is the best we could do". The only reason it gets any attention at all is because of the names attached to it. -- Adam D. Ruppe http://arsdnet.net
