The MIME.StringRange object seems to be useful in more cases than just in the MIME module.
Any objections if we move it into the String module and then name it Range (i.e. String.Range) instead?

MIME.StringRange is intended as a temporary measure until the basic string type can do it by itself (which I intend to implement after the 7.8/7.9 split).
How would that affect C modules? Are you going to drop support for evertything which doesn't use the STRx() macros for low-level access?

I intend to attempt to be as backward compatible as possible, albeit there will be problems with code that requires NUL-termination, but such code often already has checks for the presence of other NULs.
the 7.8/7.9 split? didn't that in a way already happen? i mean on what is mast working if not 7.9? and now that we pretty much defacto end up using git (is there still anyone with objections against using git?) what more is there to do besides opening a branch and naming it 7.9? (pikefarm may need some adjustment, but that should be it)
greetings, martin.
Me and grubba has been working* to cross off stuff on that list for the last month or so, and we are now since last week down to this:
[ ] zino Get the network running on eureka-svn [ ] marcus Verify grubbas git export against the svn export.
Which is to say I'm holding it up right now.
We (or in honesty probably I) decided early on to not split until we had the git conversion done to put pressure on getting it done this century.
* Although very slowly on my end.
mast is working in his own git repository independently from the master thanks to the wonders of DVCS.
There might still be objects against git (some of them coming from me), but there has been a choice by fiat after a small competition. So git it is.
