Basically nothing gets in the engine unless it goes through Mark and he thinks it's both a good thing and ready.
For which I am very grateful. Mark has an expansive vision and solid knowledge of both the language and the people who use it, and so far, I think everything he's decided has been spot-on. I trust him to make the right decisions.
He told me a couple of years ago that he wanted to rewrite the engine. I was appalled. I was afraid it would change too much. Was I ever wrong. He's making it better, and we won't lose anything. He's very good at guarding the syntax and backward compatibility.
