This time, I tried to start a discussion first, and I got no response. There were attempts to modernize the codebase about a year ago. AFAICS there was no discussion then. What was that saying: "don't vote, don't complain"? I'd like some discussion, that's all. I hear that the consensus is "new stuff is for new code, or at least whenever one happens to change old code fixing the bugs". I'm not quite sure whether that's a good idea, we should at least try to achieve some consistency -- and not necessarily sticking to the bottom line. Or maybe I'm too old school seeing major version changes as necessitating a porting effort ;-) Gintas
