Sometimes, it's easier to rewrite some code than to convince people to relicense.

Perhaps this is one of those times? I don't wish to negate the valiant efforts of those trying to resolve the licensing issues, but I think that as an aside, maybe it'd be worthwhile to start a class library project all of our own? In time, if the licensing issues with other projects were resolved, then there would be nothing to stop us trying to integrate the best of all worlds, and trying to combine all the available classlib offerings to provide one open-source free implementation under the Harmony banner.

I for one haven't had any exposure to the source code of any of the classlib projects out there currently, I guess that would be a factor in who would be able to contribute to a new classlib codebase... The real question though is there any interest in this? Is there anyone else on this list who like me is itching to write and contribute some new code to the project, and who would be interested in starting to implement the class libraries? :-)

Thoughts, comments welcome.
