I have to say that I share those concerns.

Specifically, I believe that SPI was meant to be our foundation. That it
grew into something more, and that it took several years for it to do
what we needed it to do is unfortunate; but there is no reason to
assume, from my point of view at least, that building another foundation
to do what SPI couldn't do, will bring us more success.

Brian, what's your view on that?
