For the first byte of the opcode, the row determines the first nibble (or the first hexadecimal digit), and the column determines the second one. Or, opcode 0x70 corresponds to JO, or "jump if overflow". Some x86 instructions occupy more than one opcode, this is usually because they encode the first register operand i...

You haven't actually established that meta classes are the solution. I contend that simply supporting first-class functions (e.g. function pointers or delegates) would solve the same problem in a much more general fashion.

But what plugins? I run with Firebug, YSlow, LiveHeaders, Web Developer, and XMarks and had zero issues upgrading to FF 6. The whole thing seems a bit irrational. People are complaining that various unnamed plugins don't work, but they don't use them and they don't exist for Chrome anyways. It's Upgrade OCD.

As much as I agree with you, it's a matter of priority. And for someone with limited bandwidth (ie life cycles/attention), you don't want low-priority patches going directly to Linus. That is, for varying definitions of the word priority. Maybe the would be to treat all such things as equal priority. But that's a dif...

It's possible to disable github's issue tracker and provide your own if you need one with more features.
