Anders,
I think that the getX/setX or bean paradigm is more widely accepted. We should
probably go with that. The getOption methods are cool except that if they go into an
official release it will damn hard to take them back. So if we decide to switch I
think we should switch as soon as possible. I actually intend to release 1.1beta
before this weekend though that is not a promise... What do you think? Ceki
