I deliberately said "or whoever", as I don't know myself exactly how  
or when that final decision is due to be made.  The UI spec is really  
an exercise in best presenting whichever apps it's decided we're  
shipping by default, which is ultimately a separate (but related)  
discussion.  (You could perhaps argue that doesn't make it a true UI  
spec, but I don't know what else to call it...)

Cheeri,
Calum.
