Hehe. I finally post a long-winded message on the subject and then within
moments I receive this in my inbox. I'll definitely give Tim's message a
think, along with the replies to it, over the weekend. Have a good weekend
everyone.

PS - Henry, Danny, Bill/Bill, et al - I know its been a while since I've
been actively involved, but now looks like it would definitely be the right
time, if any. If I can be of any assistance, whether in looking over draft
text and/or playing devil's advocate in any conference calls, email threads,
IRC chats, whatever, please feel free to get in touch. In the meantime, I'm
going to think about a few extensibility experiments I have in mind, and
will let you know if anything interesting comes of them.
