Thanks for the wiki page reference. It is nice to read that there was 
already some movement at that time ... I am not really concerned at how 
the ideas are voiced but more with how it is reported back to the devs. 
I still think that it would be more efficient for all if the devs told 
us their preference as to how they would like to have these reported to 
them. I am not sure if devs would like to lurk even more discussion 
groups dealing with ideas. If we knew then we could organize accordingly.

Cheers

Marc
