What's the attraction?  Verbosity?

I didn't really see anything new in there other than the suggestion
that ettitiqute related pointers be sent off list.
And that doesn't work in my opinion because it means he'll get twenty
of them from twenty well meaning souls,
since none of them saw one posted previously.    If it's a polite and
constructive comment, it belongs on list.

Threads can't be 'moved' or 'locked' - this is a mailing list not a forum.

The bulk of the rest of it clearly echoes the commentary made by many
people already.

I suppose it's a good enough summary in some ways, but I thought we
were at the discussion stage, not the marketing stage :-)

PS  Hopefully this didn't come of as critical of Loïc - We agree in
spirit certainly!
