I think a number of people feel that way. But I tried to come up with a proposal that I think might be within the boundaries of what the different factions could find acceptable. That means probably everyone can find something about it they find distasteful. But hopefully everyone can feel that their most important goals are upheld, as well. I'm not sure I can push my proposal much in either direction without making one group or the other feel like they "lose" if they accept it. >> I'm willing and able to attend the telecon this week to discuss my >> summary="" proposal, as well as anyone else's, if you think that >> would be helpful. > > I'm confident that summary will be on the agenda.

I'll make every effort to be on the call, then. (It's a bit of a challenge for me to make early morning calls, given my sleep disorder, so please don't take offense if I don't make it or dial in late.) Regards, Maciej
