Some of the things mentioned.. they should just fix and stop worrying about supporting broken APIs. Andy — well it turned out to be the second item in.

Anyway,i had recently seen http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9214177555401838409 - take the time to look at their first (i think) puzzle which deals exactly with that... and btw, they propose using the URI class. hehe … i remember a year’s old comments of yours about url’s implementation of equals – did you forget?
