And I think you've missed a very important point: the code that has been 
posted so far is a *framework*, clearly marked as not yet finished, that 
was put up for review in order to ensure that the framework was sound 
and was headed in the right direction to support what was desired. It is 
not done, not even close to done, and no statement to that effect has 
been made.

As it turns out, now that we've had the opportunity to spend more time 
thinking about how the end result needs to work, we've tasked Johnathan 
with stepping back and documenting the desired use cases and proposed 
design on a wiki page so we can ensure that the project is headed in the 
right direction. This should have been done originally, but was not, and 
for that we'll take the blame.
