Fully agreed, and I am sure everybody appreciates your offer of moderation.
I think it would be very good if Mark Roberts and Ken Waller were to be
involved. They both have, I believe, relevant experience, and could put
themselves in the shoes of the engineering people at Pentax. Their ideas
on how the petition (for want of a better word) should be put together
would be invaluable. Input from a marketing person would also be highly
desirable.

Hi John, I like your ideas.
The one thing that I feel is a must is that we all
decide the what, when, who and where via a common
consensus (vote).
We need one person ultimately responsible for the
final format.
If all of us decide to exert our strong wills and
say "I'll go along, but only if..." then this will
go nowhere.
I've volunteered to "moderate" this endeavour,
whether it's me, or not, I could care less.
But someone must or we're never going to get
anything accomplished.
I've already written Pentax with my requests.
I believe if 100 or more people did so at the
same time it could pack some punch.
To do that we must hammer out a format agreeable
to everyone, not an easy task.
Everyone must agree to go along with the common
consensus, whatever that turns out to be.

Surely this is a task crying out for a web-based form?
Oh, yes - I'm interested. But I've got some fairly
strong views about how the questions should be phrased
[how interested are you, rather than just a yes/no checkbox]
and what other background information should be collected
[how many cameras have you bought in the last 10 years?] ...
