I have to agree with Glenn. I reread his original post, and unlike mine on
this subject, where I have clearly stated that I am against this proposal,
Glenn's post said no such thing. He merely asked whether there is some
deliberative process, how it is conducted, and whether it will be done in such
a way that the community can observe it.
I fail to see what was so "evil tounged" about it. Unless asking to see the
deliberations is "evil tongued". Which makes me wonder about the deliberations.
I guess Glenn asked one question too many.
