Since this is maybe/ likely a bit harsh (and I'm trying to rid myself of this style): If you're convinced that "rip and replace" is the only viable option then I won't claim that you're wrong because I really don't know. However, until I hit a technical obstacle, I won't be convinced that the existing system can't be fixed (I acknowledge almost all defects you mentioned) and this is based on being familiar (as in 'I wrote the code') with both approaches. A social reason, eg, $someone pays my bills ($someone =~ /hat/) and that's what I did and you will have to eat it aka 'resistance is futile ...' won't do. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
