I don't know Structures_DataGrid at all, but are there some drivers that are most commonly used? If so, you guys could bundle them directly within the package while all other drivers become independent packages. This makes it easier for Mark to roll release without having to worry about exotic drivers *and* people don't need to install more than one package to get a working basic setup.I think that it is better to split all drivers apart. It is more coherent. Pear handles dependencies nicely, so we can require the most common drivers to ensure that people always get something that works. We'll leave "exotic" drivers as optional dependencies, and display clear error messages if they are missing. -- og
