For someone who spends so much time hopping up and down about process and development culture, you sure don't hesitate to start throwing around derogatory and inflammatory language. Put a cork in it, please! Language like this makes you part of the problem, not part of the solution. The whole idea of encoding interface numbers in the name was explicitly and exclusively a temporary hack. It certainly wasn't proposed by _anybody_ as a final solution. b.g. _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
