Hi all,

+1 to recommend HP codebase as a Wink baseline.
I doubt that I would have any objection. And would be *extremely* hard-
pressed to go against any community consensus on the subject.
However... as a project mentor, the most important behavior that I'm
looking for from a new community is clear and open communication on
our dev list. And I'm not seeing it...
I was traveling this morning and could not attend the IRC chat (which
is probably just as well). From my perspective, here's what I've seen:
1) A call for a community conference call, which was properly morphed
(IMO) into a community IRC chat
2) Postiing of some documentation of the separate codebases on the
community wiki (I must confess that I haven't read this documentation)
3) I assume that the IRC chat took place
4) A call for a vote to select the HP code as the baseline for the
Wink implementation.
Note that there are some serious gaps in the above -- I haven't seen
discussion of the two codebases on our dev list, discussion about why
one codebase over another, a transcript of the IRC discussion, or a
summary of the IRC discussion, etc. Hoping that we can fill in some of
these gaps?
