I agree!
Now the only remaining question is: who's gonna do it?
I wish him/her good luck :-) Please be sure that the people on the list are
told where/when to send their vote. A common misconception is that only
users with news access are allowed to vote for/against newsgroups. In fact,
anyone is entitled to do so, especially since mailing list subscribers are
possibly affected by the outcome.
