The purpose of a core library is to take care of the lower-level things required to deal with the external data representation. It is key for a core library to make all available data easily usable for tool writers, not to enforce a particular internal representation. I expect different tools to use the same core library to do different things and to use the data provided by the core library in different ways. //Peter --0blaZc+aUkVqY8MO Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFWeds2hR3Q0dhIfEgRAnwjAJ9IDPMCKLSpQWzHBkcOcXb8I+uTFwCfdMot b64D5kDeoCYWf1PtB5LAVrM= =xr/9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --0blaZc+aUkVqY8MO--
