| - | 51 | Note: I have come to the conclusion that this structure isn't awfully |
|
| - | 52 | well though through. It is likely to change, but probably not until |
|
| - | 53 | Pike 7.8. What's missing is a working infrastructure for building and |
|
| - | 54 | installing third-pary modules and applications so that they won't have |
|
| - | 55 | to be rebuilt for each new Pike revision, similarly to Perl and/or |
|
| - | 56 | Python. Stay tuned. |
