I understand what the proposal was and there has never been any confusion on 
my part. Feel free to replace "framework CVS" anytime i said "framework"

Theres your answer. 

It is just "organisation". Framework CVS/Code/whatever is stable now and one 
of the few pieces we have managed to a decent level of quality. Sure theres 
plenty of stuff about it that still crap but it works and people respect if 
for being stable.

All of the other stuff you mentioned is not anywhere near that level of 
quality of framework - so why group them together. What possible advantage is 
there to pushing bits around? Would it not be more productive to focus on 
improving the quality of the code?

Everytime some gets an idea to reorganize it seems that a half assed job is 
done and we go through months of agony to get stable again ... if that ever 
happens.
