Me too. If nothing else, these public discussions might assist vendors in gradually finding a common ground which long term might achieve some degree of much needed interoperability, and every now and then they might allow coalface doctors to chip in when there is a gross misunderstanding of underlying needs / process. Can't see any negative aspects to such public discussion - you don't have to read a message if you don't like the topic.
