I am a bit confused.
First of all the comment is innapropriate. We went through a lengthy
discussion on BLOBLIST/OF_BLOSLIST etc and, even Tom chimed in and we
made up our minds. Why are you adding this comment now? Why do code
comments have to illustrate your personal opinion -- which was
rejected?
Grepping for OF_BLOBLIST, I can't find any matches, so is the above if a typo?
Thanks
