Thorough summaries written by representative proponents and opponents of each principal side of the GFDL debate would be well received at this time. Such summaries are requested. For other DDs, I cannot speak, but such summaries would likely decide my vote at least. To clarify the request: Neither individual views nor random comments from random people are solicited here; the great debate stretching back years in many threads on several lists has already done that. Nor is this message to try to cut off debate in other threads, which I have no right to do. It is only to ask those who feel that they can summarize their sides' respective cases, and who feel that they can reason in summary against the other cases, to do so. Rebuttals will of course then be welcome, but this is no call for a new debate. Who summarizes? I lack authority as referee, so the several sides must decide who among themselves. However, if they post summaries in reply to this message then I will index the summaries and submit the index to DWN for wider publicity. Thank you for the illuminating and very thorough debate to date. It is well appreciated. So many deep points have been made on the several sides, it is extremely hard now to decide how to vote. -- Thaddeus H.
