Check out the new threads.... sexy!
So far, I haven't seen anything that I drastically disagree with.
(Mainly because I just care that they get in a little deeper than in 5.)
It's hard to really comment on the actual implementation, because it
really seems to tie into a lot of other decisions that haven't been
made yet. (RFC 1 was assuming minimalistic changes to the internals,
which is appearing to be more and more invalid. Not that that's bad,
but *I* certainly wasn't going to suggest it.)
So I'm more or less holding my tongue as opposed to trying to hit a
moving target.
