    <p>I won't support continuing them every year. Every other year is a

              discussion list and face the inevitable wrath of criticism
              and dislike, I thought I might share it here to get some
              initial feedback. I have also cc'd in a few other people
              who might not be on this mailing list but who I think
              might be able to offer some constructive edits on its
