I wouldn't oppose doing that piece of software development under a separate funded project, if capable people were available for that. However, I am worried that most teams tasked to work on something like this would produce a complex monster, which wouldn't otherwise be directly comparable (as in: is it better or worse? is it more or less secure?) to the current hack.To have it mentioned as part of the discussion at least; has something like http://schleuder2.nadir.org/documentation/v2.2/concept.html even been considered? and if considered and found not appropriate, the rationale for it is likely interesting as well.
No, it wasn't considered yet. I vaguely recall someone pointing me at something like it (could be this one) on some occasion, but I couldn't find that e-mail now. Thank you for the link! Alexander
