user-defined operators

[Valentin]

Insulting other people is saying even less about Arain controversy... let's
put our over-inflated egos aside and go back to the reasons as to why would
Erlang need ability to support user-defined operators.
Personally, I think that user-defined-anything is not such a great idea,
because inherently leads to more difficulties in understanding other people
code, and ability to do this *fast* is a very important thing if you want to
sustain a product/system/whatever beyond two months. On the other hand, I
like to keep my mind open...but, cynicism does not sell good ideas.

Valentin.

PS
Arian controversy is not realy a controversy... it is much easear to
understand it than, say, holy trinity.
