Hi everyone,

Me and Martin have just finished discussing it and here is what we think:

There are way to many rather complex interdependencies for it to work (even
'graph/index' is called from outside of 'graph'). It seems to us that everything
should be put in one library.

'util' contains Assert class that is used almost everywhere.

I'd prefer if you'll just send me an email and tell me what you want me to
change.
