actually we have. Cocoon people used to regularly swear at us because we kept 
changing the framework. I remember at time where we would completely throw 
out and restart the framework like 2-3 times a month. This was still in our 
big ball of mud phase though ;)

One will "win" and that will be the one that the most containers standardize 
on. Considering that it is likely Phoenix and myrmidon will adopt the model I 
think is best he either has to convince me that his way is better, get cocoon 
on board (in which case it will be an impasse) or convert to non forked 
codebase.
