- I wasn't aware of this guideline, but I was aware that the discussion
- of names might trigger such verbosity and excess concern that the
- whole project would be sandbagged before it started. That's one reason
- I kept out of it except for one brief comment. I recall only too well
- the difficulties faced on this issue at the start of NativeNet years
- ago.
-
- So far as I am concerned, the "revised current charter" accompanying
- Mike's notice is a very acceptable and serviceable document. I hope we
- get something rolling soon.
