Re: Copy email addresses into Github Issues?

Got it.  There are a few "we are working on it" that got into the list.  
I'll stop.  I am not closing any of these right now, because it was 
decided I shouldn't.

We need to have a more nuanced conversation about what we can close.  
There are things that shouldn't need to go to survey or the working 
group.  I suspect we let participants bully us into a more cumbersome 
process than we really need.
