I think we can do better and skip We both seem to have a different taste, to phrase it in a nice way :) ;=20 but well, you seem to have set your mind (just like I seem to have set=20 mine when trying to find a nice and somewhat-clean way to handle this=20 when discussing it in the past). I expressed my opinion, shared my findings and expressed my concerns;=20 the series has my RB and the discussion here is around something I=20 consider in no way better than what we have right now. I'll let Oscar=20 handle discussing this topic further (sorry Oscar! :) ), but I'll=20 happily review what the outcome of that will be. --=20 Thanks, David / dhildenb
