I still think this was mostly a vision of individuals and not a general <br>
perception of how it is/should be handled. I was *very* surprised to <br>
hear that this is the current situation and I think it was and is <br>
unclear to others too. I also wouldn't be surprised to find a couple of <br>
binary wheels and plugins which are not cross-platform - but nobody ever <br>
noticed - in the repository.<br>

I'm fine with dumping the term "pro committee" formulation. But that's <br>
not the point.<br>
<br>
My main point is that "the status quo" as listed is not as clear to <br>
everyone as described in the text. Or is it really that clear to <br>
everyone? I would love to hear some other opinions of community <br>
representatives and PSC members on this.<br>
