Any reason why you chose bashing Chris' GLEP in another mail and start
your own instead of working together and bringing your input for 42?

I think i have an idea where this is going...
Don't you already have some GLEP saying XML sucks?
I miss references to the old log ewarn issue, which really should be
solved as well while we're at it.
There are some good ideas in your GLEP, so are some in Chris'. No good
is coming from having two similar GLEPs around at the same
time. So please don't waste our time [1] by having two more or less
redundant GLEPs discussed.
