11 These are all good suggestions and I think that the stable tree (if
12 approved) will end up incorporating many of them down the road. However,
13 the GLEP as it currently stands is mainly focused on establishing the base
14 tree itself. I consider this a pre-requisite to all of the other
15 suggestions that have been made. These suggestions are also better
16 answered/implemented by the folks working on the QA project.
