I wasn't actually looking for a server that does "commit through DS" as hoping no-one would have one at the bakeathon, so I didn't need to worry about coding that in the next couple of weeks.

I have tried to keep a fairly clean separation between the generic layout stuff and the files layout specifics. I plan on starting working on block layout stuff soon, in part to clean things up so that other layouts can be added. > Should I be looking into objects implementation? > Well, it wouldn't be easy yet, but it would be great if you could do so in a few months? > > Looking forward to the bakeathon, rick > > > Will not attend this time.
