It might well be that the board is open for good ideas and new insights ;) IIRC, the policy to not compare with AOO in public, was based on the wish to not divide the two more than was the case, in the hope that a coming together would grow. Looking at what happened over the years, and the situation at AOO, I think it can be well defended that we should change policy. And start comparing clearly (and non offensive) to help inform the poor users out there, still hooked to AOO. OK?
