Nobody is using it as an excuse.  When you say "they should still do a
good job" who exactly are you referring to? As I pointed out, the
developers that are now working on GC are not the ones that wrote the
code in the first place. So if you mean the original developers there
is no point bringing it up here. Anyone who works on GC knows that the
code is lamentably poorly designed in many areas, and this causes the
current developers no end of headaches.

That is not to say that I necessarily agree with your criticism of the
way it works at the moment anyway, others have been addressing that in
their contributions to this thread.

So, do you still think that the current developers are lazy?
