Yeah, I remember that. That is way no one complained when <sequential> and <parallel> and all the discussion about <join> and <kill> and <catch>.

But as you well say, I am not a commiter, so why should you complained I am not doing your walk. And yes, there is very little concensus but I wonder how many people are on one side and how many in the other, some times it feels like (1-N).
