28/10/2006 Danny said about the
"sandbox/mailet-refactorings" branch:
Compromise my ass, this is my sandbox fork Muahahahh ! ;-)
What I mean is, this project doesn't have to achieve
consensus itself,
as long as it helps us to understand what the underlying
problems are
which have resulted in no agreement for such a long time.
After this fork is all done we won't have Mailet v3,
we'll have a plan
for Mailet v3, which might well include decisions which
still need to
be bottomed out.

I replied to him
++1 You know I'm a fan of "code based proposals".
I just put a "beware the DI fanatics" and a "beware the
JNDI haters"
signs near your sandbox :-P
I worked on that sandbox with that spirit. Work toward something
concrete to propose. If you have "signs" to put near this
sandbox I will
be really happy to read them.
I preferred to avoid discussing the technical thing too
much on the list
because I had no idea of what I would have done there.
I believe that proposals thrashed out in the sandbox area are good,
and can go places where we wouldn't want James to go, they can ask
more questions than they answer.
But this project does still exist through the mailing lists, and
experiments in the sandbox don't really mean much unless they at least
start or end in discussions on the list.
I'm 100% in favour of people demonstrating and experimenting in the
sandbox, but please remember that the purpose is to illustrate or
provoke discussions on the list.

Which the guys have done in an admirable way today, also taking Robert's
idea onboard of using a prefix [handlerapi-experiment]. All great to see and
much appreciated.
