With all due respect, I do not expect even these few wise but opinionated
gentles to have reached any kind of consensus before the issue HAS been
carried to those not on the list (ignoring the fact that it HAS been being
discussed since before the administrative regions were established, it's just
more common now.) I fully expect the end of the weekend to produce a NUMBER
of messages along the lines of "Well, I spoke with 16 people, and 14 of them
agree with me that..." BESIDES anything coming out of Rundel.

It's waited for years now. Another one or two is likely to prevent problems
and won't hurt anything important.

As I recall, Etienne put forth a proposal that carried his understanding of
the apparent developing consensus. I believe his summation was accurate. He
asked for comments. A few people asked for and received clarification.
There were no counter-proposals or proposed amendments. There was no
decision as to whether to present it to the landeds for review.
