No, not you, but I can point you to two postings where Alex 
Schenck screams out loud on this list that all of meta is useless 
and obsolete and needs to be deleted all over.  And *that* is what 
I have reacted against in both of my messages. He clearly talks of 
a "clean canvas" and building the new "from the ground up". There 
is no provision for keeping *any* of the old material, because in 
his mind everything we now have just sucks.

The first was on March 25,
