Poul-Henning, what I'm seeing here is a LOT of voices raised against this idea, both from key developers and other citizens of -current. Regardless of whether or not you think you're right and what reasons you have for thinking so, what this is saying is that there a lot of people who do not want this, and you would do well to listen to them. No-one (as far as I can see) is objecting to making ata the default (which it already is), and to kill wd in some number of weeks. Why can't you just do that, and put and end to this discussion happily? Will a few weeks really harm the development process?
