I shall start debate. The current version of taylor is 1.06.1 and I have a
copy, I think. But one GOOD reason to obtain Taylor
is the y protocol, which is 50% faster and more efficient than g.
I have attempted to integrate both Taylor and BSDI with no luck
yet. The key being policy.h and I am HAVING a hard time.
If I could, I would make it available to BSDi just like Apache 1.0.3,
but I am having problems.
