well, no. we didn't all decide. you may recall the argument i made on
the general list that i didn't buy the desktop client story and that
web service integration is much more important. i strongly disagree
with the decision above and have no interest in compromising the
integrity of cosmo's interfaces just because some of you guys think
that users can't cope with the notion of different tools requiring
different urls.
