For concrete suggestions about how to address the issues in the wiki take a look at the "solutions" section under each issue. All issue have at least one suggestion, many have more.

Where it isn't so different is in cases where there are plenty of experienced and active mentors (I believe Stratos is one such case which is why I proposed it as a test case). > * This is an incremental step in the deconstruction proposal. Not for me it isn't. It's an incremental step towards finding the merits in your proposal for a specific type of project. I have never supported the deconstruction proposal and I trust people (including the board when the IPMC makes its recommendations) are clear on this. My championing of this proposal should not be seen as a championing of the whole deconstruction idea. > Note, Ross was one of the most vocal discussers, seeing both the > merit and potential pitfalls of my proposal.

The only thing you have convinced me of is that there is no opportunity to find the merits while this pTLP idea is wrapped up in the larger deconstruction proposal. I made this clear in the initial proposal of the idea and I made it clear in my response to Jim. I'm making it clear again here. I want to expose the merits and avoid the pitfalls of your larger proposal. I am *not* adding my weight to your larger proposal. I am merely moving past an incomplete wiki page with practical activity. I will do the same with many of the other proposals that have merit (e.g. Ant has started to build momentum behind his tooling suggestions, |I hope to help there too).
