We all have these questions, Phil.  What we are awaiting is someone to =
provide an actionable answer.

There is nothing to do about the FUD (as is already remarked elsewhere =
on the What would ... thread).  That's a waste of energy.  What we need =
is energy put into having an AOO that serves its community.

Patricia and Marcus have already taken some steps and there is a call =
for volunteers on the download page. =20

We need people to step up.  The folks we have are already spinning more =
plates than they have arms and legs.
