This seems to be a serious shortcoming on AJs part.  Without this, any further work would be futile and could end up being very frustrating.  I've seen this from Huw and it is starting to come from Max.  AJ needs to get some time together and write up what is and is not acceptable as far as code style, fashion and what he expects out of the development efforts for the DIB engine.  Making a statement

Agreed James,
this is the exact point I am getting at I guess... what exactly is 
acceptable and what is not... It seems we have a working solution for DIB.
I do not think that it would take that long for AJ to sit down and say 
here.. this is what I want or this is what is acceptable then its up to the
development people to come back and say ok here is our solution and then 
rectify the delta's in between. If Huw and Max have a solution
then what is the delta?
