hi,
i know that iemguts is not in pd-extended anymore because it's considered "unstable / unfinished".
i didn't look at the code, maybe propertybang needs lots of stuff from iemguts... but what if i just take only propertybang and make an external for it. would that get included in pd-extended?
most objects in iemguts are pretty self-contained (well, they all included the same header, that provides some common infrastructure.
so taking the C-code of one of the iemguts objects and releasing them separately, is just a stupid way to circumvent the "unstable/unfinished" clause. in this case it would be better to just add iemguts to pdx. (i think forking is ok if you need to add functionality or want to re-implement things; but just for the sake of releasing, i think forks are a bda thing)
otoh, i hope that this was the last monolithic pdx release, which i might make things like releasing "unstable/unfinished" things a bit easier.

PS: probably i should just add a popup where the users have to type "Yes_i_understand_that_the_upstream_author_considers_this_unstable" once.
