I don't know what has been happening recently, and sure lots of it is
simply Good Stuff, but I have problems with this new eagerness to throw
stuff over the wall into the open. I'm in good standing with the
'release early & often' strategy, but if we are claiming to be
best-practices-driven, I don't see why we shouldn't take the time to
double-check these practices.
I have been one of the advocates of 'let the user decide how he will
organize its resources' in the past, so I tend to agree with the idea
Nicola is pushing forward.
OTOH, generalizing remarks from single individuals as 'general user
requests' will bring us to FS sooner rather than later. So we need more
debate ad perhaps a vote, sorry.
I know I'm doing the best I can to make myself immensely unpopular right
now. But maybe I'm simply too afraid to throw shit towards the fan (and
don't take this too literally!!)
