As I said in my email to Daniel when he asked about it. Our whole release process is here to serve us and our API stability. It's here to make sure we behave in ways that help us release higher quality software. Usually adhering the rigid schedule works and everything is fine. Every now and then, circumstances demand flexibility. I don't think your API will harm the stability/quality of this release. Or more correctly, if you added it a few hours ago, no one would have said anything, so I think it's OK. My only concern is the ever growing requests by people to get in new API during the freeze period. Anyhow, I say: let's wait until tomorrow, if no one objects, get it in. People can obviously still object later on too, and at that point, we may choose to remove it. I for one am in favour. -- Tom. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't Limit Your Business. Reach for the Cloud.
