Hi Julle and +1'ers

I believe this thread did in fact produce the desired result, namely  
a lot of ideas about the process that could accommodate the  
development of 5.0. The best suggestions defined the NG/ML as the  
medium for initial discussion of the idea and for that it always  
worked. It never worked for phases in the middle where the idea  
should crystalize into an TEP/RFC but that is exactly what the Wiki- 
idea solves. (see ECT for a successful example of this).

Historically it is true that this list has only produced a lot of  
talk, but isn't that exactly what we are trying to solve for the future?

Therefore (everyone): Don't fall back to the usual "lets get  
started". We are still in the abstract phase and there is nothing to  
"go an do" for now.
