[KSB] Actually, we should use the list as much as possible so that the 
discussion is captured and archived in a searchable format.  I'll try to 
write up some thoughts when we get closer.  VistA is actually technically 
very simple to package, almost trivial once GT.M is packaged.  But it has 
its own set of challenges that may make a package less useful than we are 
used to.
