Hi Peter, Well, it certainly is due to some kind of communication problem, and I think it's largely my "fault" if fault there is. I have a really hard time committing havf-finished bits of code, so no one's heard a peep from me in a while. And I think the long BreakPoss design doc I submitted in mid-March wasn't enough to indicate that I was working on this idea, or perhaps that I was working on the inline aspect first.
At any rate, I'm certainly not averse to having some more structured kind of communication about where to go from here be that a chat or just some discussion on the list of where we are and where we should go. As I mentioned, I'm going to dive in to his new stuff and study it carefully today and tomorrow; I'll probably have some questions and remarks at that point. But I think Kerion's definitely the lead here; he's been a lot more regular than I for some months now, and that probably will be true for a couple months more at least (unfortunately for me, since I am frustrated to be able to devote so little "quality" time to FOP, but c'est la vie...).
