more discussion than the other topics.

Yes, but I think there will be a fairly clean
small interface between the two.

This can be done with a dedicated SIG.

Also, I thought we wanted SIGs to be highly focussed.

Yes, uh, whatever that means.

(But please please please can we put GUI-SIG out of
 it's misery!)
 
How does this decision get made?  Does Guido decide?
Do we vote? I'd like to get on with it, so someone
please decide. :)
