I see no reason why the community needs yet another project. We have two

to be arguementive, I am just still not getting why we need this.
Now Sun may have need for this to address open source software for
Solaris, but if I ran the show at Sun I would just put the resources that
would be used for the CCD into Blastwave.)
I think we need to scope this out, both in terms of process, technical
and user requirements - if proposing a new project does that, then I
think it's for the best.
I don't think anyone can really morally stand up and say 'Use Blastwave'
or 'Use X, Y and Z' without really sitting down, putting some hard
thought into what we need, and figuring out what the current situation
is...
+1 but I have to admit, my gut is kinda saying the Companion project is
not the best place to do the scoping. The problem is, I can't think of a
better way to go about it under the circumstances. Maybe that's because
no meaningful scoping could even be done as long as one of the ports
systems was not open to scrutiny (that being the Companion). So now that
the Companion _is_ going to be released, its mail-list and project site
are the default and logical place to do the general scoping.
