OK, the discussion has been ongoing for four months.  Nothing came of it,
except for another recent burst of activity that looked like a step in the
right direction, and then died again.

We noticed the absence of closure in this week's meeting.  Thus it *is* time
to "call for the vote".  That's what's happening now, but with one final
comment period to make sure we take a proper pulse of today's community.

Really, I would rather that it simply "have happened".  But I'm happy to have
the board step in and say "ok, let's do *something*".

Also, keep in mind that the board *is* ultimately elected to be the
representatives of the community, so if the board asks the webteam to choose
solution A instead of B, it's ultimately the "community's choice".
