Oh no, not that discussion again ;-)

I have to say that when I made FlexForms back then it was a very  
clever idea to have a function that could convert to-from-to array- 
xml-array and I decided to use that for FlexForms. I must say that I  
still like it under PHP4. With PHP5 and improved XML support it is  
different.

So, I'm pretty happy with my choice back then. It's a great idea! ;-)

I agree that we could learn something from others. However, I'm an  
innovative person and I am generally not the type who accepts an  
"authority" solution if they suck, then I rather make my own,  
smarter, quicker and pragmatic solution; hence TYPO3 came to the  
world and it has done pretty well. I think you can't say that it is  
always bad - otherwise I think you are with the wrong CMS. But of  
course there has been wrong choices along the path when looking back.
