This depends on who you mean by "we". It's not just you and me, Ted. If
in discussions on this list a consensus is reached that this is the best

convinced in advance. Someone needs to draw up a formal proposal, I
suppose, but that's not a big job. SBL and SIL both have a stake here
and experienced people who can help, if they agree. If we can't convince
this list, then we are probably on a loser. But I already see several
people starting to agree that a new character is the best way to deal
with this issue.
By "we", I was referring to my company. If SBL, SIL, and others can be
convinced to pursue this, I would laud it as a step in the right direction
and would be happy to contribute what I can to the discussion. I just think
that anyone submitting a formal proposal should be prepared to push it
through the system.

Thanks for the clarification. Well, I have already had one unsolicited
offer to write the proposal, from Michael who has been doing them for a
long time I think. So it's certainly not down to just your company,
though I hope you don't have to drop out of the discussions completely.
