IIRC, the objection was invalidated by mine, and other's replies. As for
Raul's objections, I don't see anything in his objection that is arguable other
than his dislike for it. His only objections were:
1) Some one else had an objection
2) This change isn't public enough
As for 2, that's what this list is for, to make things public. Lot's of people
are already discussing it, and outside the list, I don't even find a single
objection.
I set a one week discussion period, after which there was one (invalidated)
objection. I don't see why this, afterthought, objection would stop this
proposal dead in it's tracks.
