Fred,
Appreciate your comments. On the sequencing of the whole thing,
definitely, go through 1-9, agree on standards and in fact, probably
don't fund an account until maybe step 4. But my original proposal
was that *I* fund it, which would simplify decision making through the
golden rule, lol (he who has the gold rules). But even then the goal
would be to achieve consensus and if not, justify decisions, I think
the group would be owed that at least. Now if several folks want to
fund a group account, I'm happy to be an indian in the process but it
complicates things as you've noted. Back to the sequencing, I'm
still wondering if there's enough interest and if so, where we should
do this. Glad you're interested, BTW!
Regards,
Mark
