	Also known as a "spike solution" in the extreme programming
world. IMHO, that's one of the keys to OSS -- the first cut proves
to people there's something worthwhile, and gives them a base to
work off of. Yes, rewriting will probably have to be done, but
that's not a sin -- how much of Linux 0.99.x is left in Linux 2.2.13?
