hi brad,

re: "the response has been overwhelmingly positive"

as john kennedy used to say... "let me say this about that".

i can see where a goodly number of respondents felt that as SI members, they had no choice but to take what was given to them, so they might as well try to at least provide positive input in the hope of influencing the next version.

please point out to me if i have erred in this assumption. were members ever given the hope of retaining the original format? did you ever say, "tell us what you think, and if you don't care for it, we'll scrap the whole idea"?

if it's correct that you never did anything except ask for feedback on impending changes, then i submit to you that some of the "positive" responses are little more than attempts to make the best of a bad situation.

:)
