er, um, eh, wot?

    This is beginning to look as though Grundoon is in charge.
    
    Frankly, guys, you are scaring me off.  I've got my "collect into"
stuff about ready to send off, but the amount of annotation you apparently
require has passed my complexity threshold and is headed for the top of
the lightning rod.

    There is no way that I am going to be able to remember the
formatting requirements (is it (er)(um) <er><um> [er][um] (er,um) or
what?)  or even what the TLAs stand for and when to use them.

    I can only see this as a way to make the FIX/ENH submission and above
all adoption process _harder_ and _slower_.  It's certainly looking like an
effective way of keeping me out, that's for sure.

    The only way that I could possibly cope with something like this is if
it's built into Celeste or if it's done through buttons in some Swiki page
that Squeak knows how to navigate me to without _me_ telling it.
