[wp-hackers] UTW and WordPress

[Computer Guru]

I think you're missing my point though, Aaron...

S2C is a plugin that should be considered for inclusion. That's one thing.
But with UTW, we're *already* adding the same exact feature (tagging) to WP.
So I'm recommending using an already-existing platform vs. re-inventing the
(amateur) wheel.

I'm not saying: "Hey, XXX is a great plugin! Let's stick it in the core!"
I'm saying: "This new feature YYY we're adding - Plugin ZZZ does just that,
and it's done in a very mature and efficient manner. How about we use that
instead?"
