until we have a solid beta in our pocket I think it's a bit premature
to be proposing it too seriously. and before we all discuss it, it is
a bit premature to be broadcasting announcements beyond this list.

all for the enthusiasm and seeing what we can get done in the near
future though and revisiting the idea next week after another beta or
two.

fwiw, I'll be away teaching a field course in a remote area with little

that is not a compromise I believe we should make. half-baked is not
good enough.
