I'm going to ask a question I've been thinking about for a
while... Is
it about time that bbwin is bundled into the hobbit project as
the
"official" hobbit windows client? By this I mean providing the
bbwin
application with the complete hobbit server/client package? I
think that
Etienne has done amazing work over the last few months in
integrating
the client with the hobbit centralised server setup.
	
	
	I don't see any need for that. BBWin is being developed entirely
by
	Etienne, and he has his own schedule for making new releases and
	improvements. Merging BBWin with Hobbit would make that more
difficult,
	I think.
	
	It is true that with the central configuration that BBWin now
has, there
	will be some more coordination needed between the two projects.
E.g. I
	won't do a release of Hobbit without checking with Etienne first
if he
	has any updates that he wants merged first. But I think on the
whole it
	is better to keep the two projects going separately.
	
	"If it works, dont 'fix' it".
	
	
	Regards,
	Henrik
