I agree completely. I was going to write a similar post to the list
last night, but I didn't get a chance to do so.

The reference to "a bit that Jos wants confidential" and "less than
100%" forthcoming makes me uneasy. A few posts down in that thread,
Jos said we can "listen in" the next time him and Bill talk. Honestly,
that's not enough. Information needs to be posted to the mailing list.
I don't use Skype.
