              i know there are some pearls in the archives, but without the search
              function working, it's a though job,i am reading articles based on
              subject - which means i'll miss many of them. ("An error occured!
              could not connect to server: Connection refused Is the server

              i don't have a project to kill :) i just got deramy about design of
              NGPW (Next Generation Persistent World :)))
              
              too much abstraction is problem only at the start of implementation,
              until then, the architect can still work more on it. But i agree -
              too much abstraction at the enddesign leaves too many options to
              implementators. if all the possible options are equivalent, that's
              not a problem. but they usualy aren't.
