And we _have_ to talk about it in a meeting?  What is wrong with email
discussion on this list?

Seriously, there are two possible outcomes of talking about this now
during the meeting itself:

1)  We banter back and forth a bit, and then defer it to later because
there isn't enough discussion about it in the community yet or some
changes need to be made.

2)  We banter back and forth a bit and then vote on it, probably doing
so too soon, and have to amend it based on feedback from the community.
Suck
