As I see it, it's the fundamental concepts competing against each other, and that's how it should be; how else we'll find out which approach is best?
Would not that be better to contain the battle among the gurus, the lib developers. So that they are forced to cooperate, to consider alternatives, to come up with one best (in their collective opinion) solution...
There is a big difference between "best" and "best in their collective opinion". Also, one library may be best in one thing and suck at something else. Emil
