So far, we're at least kicking around some concrete ideas, which IMHO is a good thing. I know we've got a couple of BC fans here & if there was a consensus to accept that, I'd get on board, so maybe its still an idea worth kicking around. But I can understand and agree with the objection that it is not as simple and straightforward as one might like. Is there any way we might identify interested parties and get a straw-poll on it? Any chance the vendors would likely get on board?
