Ok, but the construct of the above has not been discussed until 
conclusion. Shall we consolidate this first, and then move on to other 
issues?

It was not aimed at you personally. I thought the issue was an 
interesting one, saw the discussion move away and tried to focus it 
back, so we could formulate a conclusion. Glad to see you are still on 
the subject.

I'm not sure what you mean here exactly. I think that is pretty much as 
simplified as possible for that method. Other than that, It believe each method 
in the spaces API needs to have generics applied as well as possible. I think 
sending you a patch is possibly the best way to do that as you mentioned in 
another email unless there is something you believe we need to go over here. I 
just don't completely understand the question; apologies.

I'll hook up with Jeff, throw something together, and everyone can check it out. 
Then I believe we can talk about consensus etc. Considering the conversation and 
the different issues, I don't think we'll reach that point until we have some 
impl to poke around in.

Thanks,

Wade
