I put a detailed critique and some proposals for alternatives forward. It would be nice to hear your comments about how essential the current approach (for the iterators) is for you and Karens plans for further development, and/or how the alternatives would interfere with it. << I agree, and this is one of the reasons I thought a comprehensive development plan, not just a simple todo list, is essential. More than just one or two of us are waiting to see the solidification of a plan before we can see where we fit. Personally, I see a lot of things I'd like to do with the layout system, but I have a strong concern that they may not be fully congruent with the overall path of FOP as it is seen by the most prolific committers (like Keiron). My work would thus be a waste of time for both me and FOP. Let's get it together on this so we can all work towards a solution. I really don't see why there's such a "love it or leave it" attitude with respect to the LMs as they are now. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
