I will not rearchitect large chunks of the product while the chief architect is on vacation, now matter how much nicer it would make the codebase. I won't, no matter how much I want to build this now that I've seen how it should be. Not gonna do it. Wouldn't be prudent.

(Note that this is not a matter of resisting the temptation to go behind his back; he's a great guy and a pleasure to work with. I want to discuss this with him. But he's not here, and I'm kinda rarin' to go, so I'm trying to refocus myself on something else for the next week or so until he gets back.)

Well, if you had nothing better to do, you could always make your mods and save your work to somewhere where it won't escape into the wild...

JOhn.

BTDT, gotten in trouble for it.

I've also found the fix for long standing issue, on Friday, at 8pm. 1 little character was wrong. I restrained myself and let other look at it and confirm my fix on Monday.

Write it up, even code it, but don't implement it. Then let Sr person know you had a idea while he was gone.

Sounds like a variant of Boeckman's Law:
"Thou shalt not implement WAN router config changes on Friday before thine vacation"
