<PRE>[Sorry for multiple replies, missed this bit in the last one :s]
'Twas brillig, and Thomas Backlund at 31/10/11 17:06 did gyre and gimble:
><i> But I guess that's the development trend nowdays: "I cant be bothered to
</I>><i> fix things properly so I just call it "depreceated"... and go ahead
</I>><i> and break things just as I like"
</I>
I think that's a little unfair in the representation of this problem (I
won't comment if this *is* an overall trend).
I think there has been a significant push recently to break from
"traditions" that are holding things back. If something doesn't work *by
design* then coming up with an alternative way of working and
deprecating the old way seems like a perfect way of driving progress IMO.
The "I can't be bothered to fix things properly" could easily be applied
to the current status quo, which has a carefully ordered sequence of
otherwise parallelisable tasks and a careful placement of certain key
files, just because no one can "be bothered" to address the underlying
design issues.
I guess it's likely just a matter of perspective/opinion as to which
philosophy "can't be bothered".
