Natfeats is just another way, right. I don't know that you noticed, but the
real problem is not called "Aranym" here, neither "NatFeats", but the
standard proposed as an API for programs willing to use NatFeats, which (the
standard) is not acceptable in my personal view. And the greatness and
usefullness of the Aranym itself would not justify it.
