BTDT. Lost more SAN points that way than I did understanding NEXT.pm.

Feel free to try. I'll buy you a pint of bleach to take the pain away afterwards.

(more seriously, DBIx::Class was started because I chatted to Tony and we 
agreed that it was going to be less painful to start from scratch. The 
original DBIx::Class announce e-mail was titled "taking the easy way out" 
because compared to trying to make Class::DBI sanely extensible, starting a 
new project was - I don't envy Tony his maint bit and I'm hugely impressed 
he's managed to get as far with the existing codebase as he has)
