Just for the record, and its recent:
As long as we don't go silly on the C++ syntax, i think we should.
I've been looking at Roberts' C++ refactoring work and I actually
like it.
(God, I never thought I'd say I like C++ work.)
My main aims are to fix the comm and store layers. I'd hate to see all
this work happen and then have a sucky comm/store layer holding us back.
Roberts recent work in his cxx branch is going quite well and the async
store lookup code is a good start on fixing some of the problems
I've come across.. I'm just cautious. :)
