You can look at the CVS history to get more info on this. I don't think the role of PA is lead developer but rather maintainer. There is no copyright issue here. > Okay, enough of that.

That's my position too. I am just angry it's the second time Alexey comes with a version and is rejected by PA. He reworked everything he made the first time taking our comments into consideration. > A possible solution could be the introduction of a factory method in > IT[X] - you could then choose if you want the cached version or not. It's an optional feature. And we are not talking about caching a page, we are talking about caching a page variables into a serialized state. Just like session variables are stored in the file system. > Still, Pierre-Alain as lead developer, project manager, copyright > owner or however you wish to call his position, should have the final > word on this one - but it should be made clear for what reasons the > changes are not accepted, a simple "no" is not enough IMHO. I agree and I would like to see an example of when the new version kills BC as it is stated in a previous mail. My own tests didn't show any problems but they are probably not complete.
