This from a newbie and another lurker who has not made a single 
contribution to FL.

I suggest that you think in terms of working up a sturcture and 
associated responsibilities list PROPOSAL rahter than  a definition.

Speaking bluntly, reading all of the exchanges on the subject thread 
leaves me with one overriding impression - that you want to be King.

Getting started helping with the project is not the easiest thing in the 
world to do.  (But, it is far from the hardest either.)

I find no basis in fact for your assertions that FL misleads people.  
Had I been on the receiving end of many of your remarks, I would have 
invited you to stuff your opinions where the sun don't shine.
