                                                 I'm actually on the fence - (ben_tilly) - (32) - Sept. 23, 2004, 10:55:24 AM EDT
                                                     That is with implementation inheritance - (bluke) - (2) - Sept. 23, 2004, 11:00:41 AM EDT
                                                         That is both with interface and implementation inheritance - (ben_tilly) - (1) - Sept. 23, 2004, 11:08:29 AM EDT

                                     It's a decision, but it's abstracted out - (Arkadiy) - (1) - Sept. 23, 2004, 10:11:04 AM EDT
