Sorry, I misstated my meaning. Instead of "the topic of this mailing list"
it should say, "the topic of this thread".

people, and then these discussions will likely go away, but again, it is
not something that takes up considerably much space here.

Without some systemic reforms, I anticipate that that will make things even

and constructive.
