Obviously without knowing anything further about the move I would tend |
27 |
to agree, but perhaps: |
28 |
|
29 |
- "anarchy" could explain the reasoning? Most likely there is some sane |
30 |
reason for this? |
31 |
- If such changes are made to the hardened project they could be |
32 |
announced to the -hardened list? |
33 |
|
34 |
|
35 |
I'm rather hoping that the hardened overlay has the potential to go away |
36 |
at some point soon and all the changes absorbed into mainstream? I get |
37 |
the impression that the size of the overlay is shrinking slowly (which |
38 |
is good in my opinion...)? |

Good luck all |
