I reject this dichotomy for practical reasons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mythical_Man-Month#Conceptual_Integrity I suspect that bugs, unusability, insecurity, and unreliability go down as the gaps between the abstractions of UI, architecture, and implementation narrow. This usually results in the reduction of many (but not all) kinds of complexity up and down the abstraction stack. I also reject the dichotomy for ideological raisins. I refuse to accept that "users" are "stupid". http://www.amazon.com/Inmates-Are-Running-Asylum/dp/0672316498 _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list tahoe-dev@allmydata.org http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
