Good questions all; they should be answered as part of a sponsoring
Group's decision-making process, and a high-level sentence or two
answering these questions belongs in the simple announcement.  But
this is not the place to work this out; the process directs these
questions to a more focused and technical environment - a Community
Group.  The OGB isn't that Group, and even if the thousands of
unfocused messages haven't convinced you yet, neither is
opensolaris-discuss.  This list is for governance and policy
discussion and the other is for offtopic rants, flames, and the
wasting of time.
