Even though a change in an external lib or a commit in our source might change this - i see those cases very rarly and typically detected by the maintainers easily. Our code is threadsafe and most libs are, too. The other thing is the advantage and that is very big to my guesses since it would allow us to go with the faster apache way finally. So i like this idea pretty much. Best regards, Marcus
