     Type:  enhancement  |      Status:  new        
 Priority:  major        |   Milestone:  Release 1.0
Component:  system-wide  |     Version:             
 Keywords:               |  
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Some of the code is pretty messy and could benefit from some housecleaning
 and re-conception:

 - Connection spec & controller pointers in pobjects
 - The whole metaclass protocol, particularly the way indexing is managed
 - pobject serialization / deserialization: see April '07 devel list
 discussion with Pierre
 - #55
 - The asdf / build system is really ugly, at least reorg if not re-
 architect
 - Transaction macros, stack and interface w/ backend - factor our common
 parts
