Hello Tiger,
This is partially why I asked for a list of current priorities on the
RSP-RSP transfer thread.
I, like you, believe that there are many things on the priority list
that should not be priorities over things such as RSP-RSP transfers
and other issues, such as the transaction audit trail feature.
But we can only speculate on that, since we can't seem to get a firm
answer from anyone at OpenSRS about where things are in the priority
of things.
