Excuse me, but this is a legitimate technical discussion about a 
question I asked about SL. The technical points under discussion are 
general, and are as relevant to SL as they are to the fork.

You may not like some of the contributors to the discussion, but as 
we are lead to believe this is an open list, I am happy to receive 
commentary and clarification from anyone providing it is on-topic and 
relevant to SL.

It may be a forlorn request, but if we could all put aside the sniping
for a little while we may actually produce some signal amidst all this
noise.

Gavin
