... <snip> ... Good to read you again, Carol :) I pretty much agree with what you've written. As far as RFD / CFV goes, I'm pretty sure that nothing like it is...
... I agree with you, definitely. I was not envisioning a one-moderator group: it's why I talked about a "board." There's some discussion around my proposal...

I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to continue, but I don't feel I have any right to expect to continue, and worry that I might hold you back (cue Titus...
