That'd be nice, yes.

Obviously I'm misinformed.  Both Linas and I have asked why the PLN
code is being developed on a separate branch and been told that it is
because it will break stuff in the core.  Except by Joel, who has told
us that he just doesn't want to give anyone the expectation that it is
"ready".  So the whole conversation has centered around people
breaking stuff.
