Re: Re: Play nice! Re: Savant/Flexy/Foo template engines

Quick followup:

Would Alan have voluntarily incorporated Savant-style code into Flexy, if the Savant proposal had not come up? Certainly he was not going to do it on his own; Savant has been around for a year now (and as everybody knows I have plugged it at every opportunity). Would he have done it in collaboration? Perhaps, but the end result would be something like the current CVS Flexy, not a simplified system like Savant; Alan, at the top of the PEAR hill, would dictate the end result, no matter how good the competing ideas or the reasons for a complete refactoring.

This is not a slam against Alan personally! Almost anybody would have the same incentives to act in that manner. Sorry if it sounds bad, it's not intentional. -- Paul M.
