That's good news!

Damn, I'm not gonna make it to this year's conference :-/.  I'd be 
interested to see your talk.

Sadly while Pixie's internals might be cunning, what I think needs 
doing isn't all that cunning - it's more code cleanup, simplifying & 
standardizing things, and then bug-fixing.

Here's the TODO list:
	http://search.cpan.org/src/SPURKIS/Pixie-2.08_02/TODO

After going through it again, there are things missing (ie: grep for 
all TODO's in lib), and some things out of order.  I actually reckon 
some of the 'medium priority' refactoring stuff is more high priority, 
for example, and I don't think it's a good idea to try & store object 
graphs in tables until some work on the Stores & perhaps Pixie.pm has 
been done.

Maybe the first task is to agree on what needs to be done?

There's stuff above here
