Ray,
I mirrored Dave C's current site earlier today with wget. A tarball can
always be sent to the LRP sponsors, if we think it's appropriate.
$ wget -m http://linuxrouter.org:80/
$ du -sh linuxrouter.org
33k linuxrouter.org

I agree with Scott's wording. I recognized my mistake as soon as I read his
message. I think we should give Morgan a chance to write a draft. He may
come up with something we can all agree on.

I like this. It's simple and effective. I'll probably join you, if Morgan
is unable to create a consensus for an open letter.

Agreed. We're all intelligent people with the ability to make our own
decisions.

Agreed. That wasn't one of my better suggestions.
