26 AAnd as Mark told me I actually didn't say that i want feedback and
27 opinions on those two mails i just sent to this ML, so please tell us
28 how do you feel about it and what would you like to be done differently :)
29 These two mails (slacker arches, eapi usage) are not policies in effect
30 but stuff council would like to decide about and want to know the
31 devhood opinions.
