I have to say,  I thought long and hard about this one.  My life as
advocate for the installed user base  has been much more challenging
since Rick came on the scene.  It  will become even more challenging in
"commit then review"  mode.    Still,  I think that Rick is a talented 
engineer who can  move the technology forward rapidly.  While that is
not my focus,  I do realize that this is important to the long term
success of the product.  I  only ask that *any* proposed product
behaviour changes (even perceived edge cases) be posted to the list for 
community evaluation and notification.   Users have to be able to
upgrade with the confidence that their applications will still work.
