@qyriad:matrix.org | infinisil: what kind of solution would you prefer? re extendMkDerivation | 16:41:57 |
infinisil | Qyriad: A solution that unifies existing approaches in a way as backwards compatible as possible, along with a plan on how the existing approaches can be cleaned up | 16:43:45 |
infinisil | I guess in short: Making solutions converge instead of diverge (just adding more alternate approaches) | 16:44:49 |
