The ding-libs development on master has been virtually stagnant for many months now. Much of what is included on the master branch is partially-completed concept work that was originally going to be done as part of a nebulous 1.0 future.
Given that the ding-libs 1.0 has been effectively abandoned (and that the ding_libs-0-1 branch has been remarkably stable for a long time), I'd like to recommend that we branch the current master off (perhaps name it 'experimental') and then reset the master branch to be identical to the current contents of ding_libs-0-1.

I would not rush with it frankly but for a different reason. The libcollection is now being evaluated as a mean for doing internal implementation of the structured logging. I have couple patches for it that I need to polish and submit. I plan to do it in couple weeks. Until we sort out the fate and use of libcollection I do not think it makes sense to do the reorganization of otherwise stable tree.
Also we need to get someone continuing the work in this area and finish the work on the INI and bring it to the final release. There is not much left but should be enough for thesis. I can work with Jan on that.

Well, that's my point. The code in master is currently not stable. Some of it is still work-in-progress for features that were never completed. I'd rather see us make changes atop the known-stable tree and abandon these ill-fated forays.

I don't see how it's easier to base this off of a broken master than it is off of a stable branch.

Ok fine I will finish the work.
