I just realized I'd misread the original mail as an anology for the free-form-operator patch instead of re-opening core classes. Just for the record: I'm positive to being able to re-open core classes. I'm still sceptical of free-form operators. And I stand by my main point (that there are reasons to be sceptical of stuff even if you can avoid using it directly yourself). Also, my apologies for the "You must have lived a sheltered life" comment - that came out much harsher than intended. Eivind. -- Hazzle free packages for Ruby?
