[Foundation-l] SUL pilot and renaming issues

Hoi,
Actually the discussion about POLICIES and the differences between conflicts
between global vs local policies is best done at this list and not
wikitech-l.

There is a sufficiently large group of people who are of the opinion that
there is  a need to have a platform to discuss these things and come to a
resolution. At this moment any community can throw spanners in the works.
Single User Login is to be used on all projects for all users. The notion
that one project would be against this is anathema to getting this sorely
needed project implemented on all projects.

I have read what has been referred to and the only thing I find is that a
steward cannot do this thing because there are bureaucrats on the
en.wikipedia. Jeez, what are we talking about? This seems to me a
straightforward situation where the bringing together of all users is a
foregone conclusion. The only argument is a formality ???

Really,
     GerardM
