 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.

Sorry Chris, I disagree. It is *very* different. 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).

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.

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).
