        Sorry its a bit late; and of course I have no vote :-) but I wanted to
say publicly that I support the direction, but of course with Thorsten's
caveats: that the design -must- be complementary to what we do now.

        I'm also not particularly eager to see a lot of media hype around this
until we have something real, and I'm particularly uninterested in
distracting "new project creation" type vapour, new mailing lists, lots
of discussion without code etc. :-) Indeed, I think there are huge
dangers ere to getting the cart before the horses as it were. IMHO
announcing products before they exist is a way to loose credibility
really fast ( and I think we can make something exist quite fast enough
for it to be fun :-)

        Anyhow, all this aside, and assuming we get all of that right (and I'm
sure we will), I'm really enthusiastic about the possiblities here.

        ATB,

                Michael.
