I know that I had sent the notice for discussion during the list-serve problems earlier this month, but there has been limited comment over the past couple weeks. Unsure if that means there's little interest, or, just missed everyone, or is perfect as is (!! well, we could hope right?). So if there's any discussion now's a good time, otherwise I'd like to open it to voting early next week. Cheers -- Dave
