[Journal] Another long article - opinions?

[Micha Silver]

I also would not limit the overall size of the Journal. But I would say 
that 10 pages is too long for one article. It just won't get read. How 
about asking Daniel Ames if he can split it into two (or three?) 
installments, and publish only part 1 now, leaving part 2 for volume 2? 
That's a popular and accepted way to present long, complicated topics in 
online journals.
