Although that would be nice, I have to ask "Why bother?" Just
going by past history, whatever we do won't work since
something else will be found to make us "incompatible" as far
as the FSF is concerned...  I kind of tired of us being
on the "compromising" side, with every change or concession
we make getting us no closer to compatibility.
