Sigh. The > problem with email, I guess, especially on long threads. My feeling was that majority of people said poaching (in a very positive sense) is the way OSS works. Why can't we start with poaching/refactoring and then, in N months, evaluate both the outcome and the process and see if things can work that way in the future[*] or something more drastic should be done? Additionally, if I understand things correctly, poaching is only needed when the code is not committed in the "right" project/location to begin with. Otis
