</div>That's what I thought and it's what seems most natural to me. Quite<br>
frankly, your line of thought didn't even occur to me.<br>
I'm not sure how much benefit there will be in soliciting comments<br>
from the general audience and trying to make it more 'democratic'.<br></blockquote><div>I like Kenneth's thought process. It does not seem to a question of 'democratic' . It is just that public exposure is good for a variety of reasons. More so for a fledgling event . Making the transition is faster rather than later when having a big event<br>

However, if there's sufficient interest in doing it this way, we can<br>
go ahead. I'm not religious about it either way. I feel that your<br>
approach requires more work and coordination.<br>
