Andreas, What I had been thinking was that now that 2.0 is getting closer that me wight want to do less with 1.8, but I agree with you that we don’t need any fixed rules, staying flexible is better. It sounds like we might want to think about some guidelines for 1.8 after 2.0 is released to avoid a “Windows XP” situation, but we’re not at that point yet.
