I'd be glad if situations like this could be discussed and solved
completely in the community, e.g. on this list.  FESCo members can
always jump in if they don't like a particular conclusion or idea how a
problem like this can be solved.

In other words: I think FESCo only should get involved if there is a
real need to. And I don't think that's the case here.
