This mail is the last I will write about cyclone in the foreseeable future.
this is about the worst possible outcome of the entire discussion.
There are serious plans to save Pure Data and cyclone by adding numerous objects.
what i don't understand is: what keeps people from creating a "typhoon" library that adds the additional objects?
there is nothing stating that all those objects need to be in the one-and-only library named "cyclone". having two non-identical libraries named "cyclone" (or "zexy") is obviously nuts; but having two libraries with similar tasks and similar (but distinguishable) names could be a win for everybody.
it's not like anybody writing compat objects needed to use the (imho overly complicated for most objects) infrastructure part of cyclone.

PS: and what is that "hurricane" library for?
