I agree with the above paragraph.  As to the rest: I would have 
preferred that it not appear on public-html.  This conversation looked 
like it was veering off course and a number of people (in particular: 
Maciej and Laura) had brought this back to discussions of the technical 
merits of the various proposals.

I found this email to be unfortunate in that it creates the significant 
possibility of bringing this discussion back into unproductive territory.

Note: I did not say whether I agreed or disagreed with any of the 
paragraphs I had elided, I simply said that I would have rather that 
they not have appeared on public-html.  I will ask everybody to not 
respond to those paragraphs.
