This is getting out of hand.  PLEASE go read the archives from about 12
months ago - pay close attention to posts from Bruce Perens, Paul Wade
and (gulp) Dave Cinege[1].  These are the most vocal participants that I
can recall - surely there were countless others.  As Christian Hudon
points out, the current scheme is in place, so why argue it all out
again?

[1] - You don't have to read ALL of Dave's messages :)
