Please do! ;-) j/k

I don't know that there was ever a firm decision as in a vote was taken
or some dictator laid down the law. I just remember someone suggesting
this approach and I said "that sounds good to me" when asked, and I
don't know if it went anywhere.

If anyone who's involved in the project has a really strongly felt
opinion I guess it's on-topic for the list and the feedback is good,
though many of us might be grumpy about a licensing thread. ;-)

Agree with the point that we have to address the leadership etc. issues
and that it would be good to get this on the web site.
