You ideas are surely interesting, but I don't think there's a
simple way to change his code according to your ideas.
I don't think the ideas are mutually exclusive. I don't see why
having an interface prevents someone from using a concept on the
concrete class.
People can use the dcollections in the following weeks and months,
and when you have implemented your ideas the people that like them
can switch to using your collections.
If it's at all possible, I'd like to cooperate on making dcollections
phobos-qualified. So I'm glad to try and find a way to satisfy
Andrei's concerns.
I'm very grateful to hear that; as I said, dcollections embody a great
deal of solid work for which I have all admiration. If we disagree, I
hope we won't make this a willpower struggle :o). Let the best ideas
win. That being said, how something is said matters even if the said is
true; I'll be extra careful with that.
