to make a rewrite possible i need further experience in all the parts of 
zinf, hence the work on zinf.  To put a conservative estimate on how 
much of the current zinf i know would be 75% or more.  With the only 
major things i'm lacking being the theming of the main gtk ui and the 
procedural expectations of certain current actions (because they're not 
documented and sometimes it's hard to tell if something is meant to do 
what it's doing or if it's a bug and working by chance) Other than that 
i've been in every single file in zinf and know how most of the things 
work.


I have changed my mind about just wanting to eventually abandon zinf 
2.x, I think it can be perfected given it's architecture, it just 
requires the motivation to do so and the will power to not fall back on 
hacks.  If you look at my todo list, my 2.3.x is where i'll be happy 
with the state of zinf.  When i can bring zinf to that point i'll be 
ready to rewrite it. In the meantime i am still working on parts of the 
rewrite, certain objects i plan to use that are streamlined and 
efficient as well as many mental notes about how this or that can be 
changed to have things fit together better.
