I agree. DIPs shouldn't just be "newsgroup postings with higher
exposure". At least we'd need a higher entry barrier, like some checking
for formal requirements. Yay for bureaucracy.
I agree. That bureaucracy should be community-enforced; Walter and I
lack the resources to add to organizing DIPs, though we'd be glad to try
them.

I'm coming to the sad conclusion that DIPs will be as ineffective as bugzilla.
I haven't seen Walter voice an opinion on any DIP so far. We desperately need
to get a DIP through a full cycle. Has anything gotten past the draft stage?
DIP2 is the place to start, then:
- it is well justified and has a good description
- it is linked to a bug which has many votes
- it was generally well received on the NG
- it has been updated several times, and by more than one person
I think it deserves a comment from Walter.
