Ok, you convinced me. Please do that and when you're done would you mind
checking wether we forgot to clear anything and if not send a new mail to
the list asking everybody to look into the ifaces and ask any question.
So we can hopefully tell our VCS people to port to the new interfaces
sometime after the weekend (depending on how much feedback we get).

Thanks.
