Understood and agreed. As I'm quickly learning, this is the Apache way. I 
don't have the time so I will follow the current arrangement.

I must admit that this is pretty sweet for WS projects. I think we should 
take this line as the WS slogan and place it on every web page :)

Cool. Please don't translate "it ain't managed" to "its a mess" .. just
send notes to the appropriate -dev list when you want something and it

in WS land you have the authority to just do it (like Nike).
