We talked about this tonight. ;-)

My preference is that people who want something done should do it and then show us.  Where we went 
wrong last time was in what happens next.

So Drupal was pretty close to ready but it didn't run on our server.  Another hoster was found but 
wait, they didn't support email (and I, for one, didn't want to lose the mailing list).  So people 
expected to build a Drupal site that would replace the current one, and save us money on hosting 
too.  But the email obstacle was a bridge too far.  And it wasn't bypassed, overcome, or let be--the 
project died.

So just do it, and be happy that you have.  Don't feel cheated that your creation didn't take over 
the world.

I'm thinking about making the code more accessible, though I don't know that we'll need a public 
service.  More on that later.

I'm glad that we have the -admin list.  I have no problem with Raymond stating his case 
passionately.  But I hate to think how much noise it would have caused on the main list, to the 
detriment of the vast majority.
