Really? I thought the whole point of this was to develop suggestions to
put to Larry, for him to consider and evaluate. In a perfect world, "the
community" can agree on a "right direction", and we'd be following that.
As we've seen, not only is it difficult to agree, but even agreeing on a
direction is no guarantee that it's right.
