This was the only reason for the rename. (It is also the reason the rename was done after the implementation, and very fast, because we had to decide on a name before Monty's keynote.) So the main issue is to choose a name that will avoid confusion with the feature Mikael R has implemented. I think anything that achieves this can still be considered. In any case, it is not the intent to change anything in the code, except I guess we need to syncronize the name of the feature with the user visible variable names. henrik -- email: [email protected] tel: +358-40-5697354 www: www.avoinelama.fi/~hingo book: www.openlife.cc _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
