It gives u place to write thought out proposals that can be accepted, rejected, and revised. And most importantly, it is a fresh/clean start which fits nicely into the new site layout. And you are correct, consolidation is needed. A clean board makes this easier. Sadly it as a lot of work to move the old into a new formal environment. I will probably add my share, but a issue for me is that I am not knowledgeable on many of the requests to fill in details... then to top it off if I do create them I'll be the one responsible to track things relating to them. The main hope is that this will provide a way to official and consolidated statements as to when and if a feature will be accepted. It would be nice if Walter were to give an official statement on the existing DIPs so as to create more incentive to formalize existing ideas: http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?LanguageDevel#FutureDirections
