There are *lots* of places that have enough bandwidth to spare for this. I
guess I disagree with you about how difficult it would be to find such a
place.

What compromises would you suggest, Manoj? I believe that this GR already
demonstrates that I have compromised in many key areas, enough that I am
being criticized by some for compromising too much.
I have said that there will be an impact. I have even advanced several
possible ways this could evolve.
In any case, please do not shoot down the message because the messenger
doesn't communicate well. That's my fault, but it doesn't mean that it
takes away merit from what I'm trying to do.
