Here's mine: don't waste all your energies on discussion here.  Spend
at least some of them actually coming up with something concrete and
for bonus points implement it, or we'll just have 1999-12 again.

Then we can shout about that.

I'm not sure design-by-commitee can ever work in a vacuum and fairly
sure it can't when there is an unbounded number of commitee members.

Cheers,
