Guido is the only person that said he hadn't tried anything.  If
others have given it a whirl, they ought to chime in now.  If very few
people have given them a try, we should decide whether we wait for
them or proceed without them.  We can't wait indefinitely.  I'm not
sure when we need to decide.
