Oh come on, David. You know as well as I do that when the  "wheels" want
something done it gets done, like oversite or checkuser. And when they don't
feel like doing doing something  they see to it that the community "talks"
until the cows come home. You can't blame this on the community engaging in
"endless talking", as there is no other initiative that has such widespread
consensus. This is a failure of leadership to honor the will of the
community, nothing more.
