Thanks. I am really happy you are actively involved. I also want to
thank Bradley and Karen from the SFC for calling into the
discussion. But the discussion at Cauldron seemed really chaotic, I
have trouble trying to summarize it. I posted my original discussion
notes and first impressions here:

We agreed to continue the discussion on this mailinglist. Hopefully
that will be a little more productive and structured.
Cheers,
Mark
