The functions in that file are basically developer's aids; they have little to do with the Mule implementation per se. An excellent candidate for packagization, IMO. I don't see why the same argument doesn't apply to all packages that use APIs that might change. calc comes to mind as an example of a library that has been "attacked" many times by unexpected API changes, but surely you wouldn't advocate moving calc to the core. -- University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +81 (298) 53-5091 _________________ _________________ _________________ _________________ What are those straight lines for?
