The irony that strikes me here is that we are talking about a module that deals with product taxonomy, and the forum>thread>post structure is demonstrably inadequate for every issue presented for the google feeder module having to be stuffed into one thread.

I think the google feeder module needs its own forum where the separate issues can be organized by thread, and a step in that direction is to at least have separate threads for separate versions.

Believe it or not, some of us don't wait for the mysterious "someone else" to fix everything. We take the code, look at what it needs to do, look at what it does and how it does it, and then we (shhh -secret here) hack it. whoknew?
