It feels like it will stay that way because of to less development-time. The
new engine would be *much* better with none but advantages. At this moment
(beta8) it is -still- not working the way it should and this sound like an
"and it won't be working for 100% in 10.1 cause we need all the time for
making it work 80% so it can be used a bit".

It is called an "issue" and so it seems to me. I know you guys work harder
then many people on this planet, and I know complaining is cheap, but I
really think ZEN should have never imported into 10.1. We have discussions
about Mono/exe, the managers don't work well in beta8(!), and all this is
related in my opinion to the fact that it came up around beta3...I said
-beta- -3-, yes.
Complaining is cheap, but maybe we as 'young' community with Novell-overrule
can learn from this. ZEN is probably better then the other solutions. But
after all, if there is to little time for developing it...it will be a pain
in the ass.
