58 | As a follow-up to my original message, since it seems some people do | |
59 | use this feature: If you currently use multiple levels of linked nicks, | |
60 | would you have any objections to moving to a single-level system? If so, | |
61 | what? | |

73 | </I>><i> | |
74 | </I>><i> | |
75 | </I>><i> As the subject says, I'd like to know if anyone finds the nested | |
76 | </I>><i>link system in Services useful, or if it's unnecessary. I originally | |
77 | </I>><i>modeled the system after symbolic links on Unix (and other) filesystems, | |
78 | </I>><i>but as this makes for added complexity and has in fact led to a number | |
79 | </I>><i>of bugs in the past as well as administrative difficulties. So if | |
80 | </I>><i>there's no need for having multiple levels of nicks, I'm planning to | |
81 | </I>><i>just remove that capability in version 5 and limit links to a single | |
82 | </I>><i>level. | |
83 | </I>><i> | |
84 | </I>><i> Note that the only case in which this makes a visible difference is | |
85 | </I>><i>the following: | |
86 | </I>><i> * Register NickA | |
87 | </I>><i> * Register NickB | |
88 | </I>><i> * Link NickB to NickA | |
89 | </I>><i> * Register NickC | |
90 | </I>><i> * Link NickC to NickB | |
91 | </I>><i> * Unlink NickB from NickA | |
92 | </I>><i> * Change a setting on NickB | |
93 | </I>><i>In the nested (current) system, NickC would use the new setting for | |
94 | </I>><i>NickB set in the last step, while in a flat system, NickC would retain | |
95 | </I>><i>the original settings associated with nick A. I can see potential cases | |
96 | </I>><i>where this functionality can be useful, but if no one is actually using | |
97 | </I>><i>links that way, then there's no real need to retain the functionality. | |
98 | </I>><i> | |
99 | </I>><i> So, opinions, please: do you need nested links? | |
