But if it keeps blood from spurting, a band-aid can indeed be a useful thing.

No, for me the problem is that there are some wheels that I do not want to
spend the months to re-invent.. that should not HAVE to be reinvented...

Such a nice way to be called lazy...  Ever hear of the concept of not
reinventing the wheel?  Why would I write my own html editor, my own
gallery software scripts, my own user signup scripts when they already
exist and can be leveraged?  To replicate the software that I am using
would take more than a couple years since I do not have the
manpower/resources/money/etc to do so.. when a compatibility layer would
be easier to write, help MORE people, and help promote the server
software.

But I guess I am just a lazy, unmotivated developer.. :)
