Darren,
Could you expand upon this point? Are you saying that gardening is
*ON* consolidation specific? That the proposal should somehow
reflect that gardening is tied to OS/Net? I'm trying to understand
the implications of this point.
There may be a distinction to be made between consolidations which
manage "original" source versus those which are primarily engaged in
importing source from the outside (SFW for instance).
But beyond that, I don't really see a reason that gardening must be
regarded as ON specific. If anything, it'd be good for the gardening
community to promote cross pollination (no pun intended) of tools and
techniques, don't you think?
