FWIW, while I'd not choose "incoherent" and "nonsense" as those are loaded terms that don't tend to make a productive debate if that is intended, I lost Luca's argument at this point as well. Now if it was just me I'd believe it was simply over my head. However, if a lead developer of one of our three package managers gets lost as well, maybe it isn't him, and maybe it isn't me. Somewhere, the logic thread simply got too difficult to follow and we're both lost. So Luca, I'd appreciate it too if you tried again from this point in the original stub-quoted above, as I really am trying to follow this. I don't have a position on this but I'd like to. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs. "Every nonfree program has a lord, a master -- and if you use the program, he is your master."
