If PMS is going to be discussed in some form, it's a fair request that 
folks have an easily readable version.

Insane enough, loosening the 8 digit version restriction can have 
other implications- very least, verifying that bash 3.0 is when [[ ]] 
support was introduced since [ ] breaks down for long long from a 
quick look.  That's off the top of the head- could be more.  Actually 
having a pdf to read would make that a helluva lot easier too.

Course, it's way more fun to just bitch at me then build a pdf so 
others can look at the current spec for the discussion at hand (bugs 
are one thing, looking at the actual spec is another).

One thing I wouldn't mind the council discussing is whether or not the 
recent behaviour re: pms on -dev is acceptable for running a project- 
it's not exactly engendering cooperation.  Feel free to delay that 
till the next month, or ignore it (y'alls court after all).
