Yes and no.
I agree with Daniel's concern that too much of this is happening in
closed venues, often with the claim that it's the only way to get
things done. And I think even you, Gabor, share a bit of this concern
based on your tweet from three hours ago -

I won't say the mailing list is the right place, but I do think it's
important to consider more perspectives than simply the insider
groups. In my opinion the best way to do that is to have discussions
out in the open.
