I should probably clarify. I don't really know what the right answer
is nor do I even have a proposal. I just wanted to temper the advice
for something stable, familiar, and maintainable, (ie, potentially
tired or boring), with the need for motivation and attraction. The
right choice for the group might be a balance between those things.<br>

Then again, the right choice might just be to see who volunteers and
what they propose to use.<br>
