Well, the thread wasn't completely useless, right? Despite being
frustrating for Frank, we're now aware of the issue he brought up,
have tried defining the problem and have come up with a few possible
solutions. (even though the thread went off-topic, no decision was
made on inclusion of the feature in standard CSL, and Frank has chosen
to implement his original proposal)

With CSL 1.0 and 1.0.1, Frank and I hashed out a lot of CSL changes
behind the scenes, and then presented a rather polished proposal to
the mailing list. Often chat would be much more productive than
(group) email. It might help us if we had a place to ruminate and
polish proposals off-list. The mailing list is a poor archive for
ideas, and proposals tend to go easily off-track.

Perhaps a "proposals" CSL GitHub repository for all CSL feature
requests and proposals? We could use the issue tracker and
subdirectories in that repo to flesh out the details, come up with
implementation ideas, examples, and documentation. We could use
Bruce's template as a start.

We could then limit use of the mailing list to mostly present and vote
on (draft) proposals.
