Though unpleasant reading, somebody has to write this, too. (My 
appologies to Walter, and to the rest of us.)


Painting Devils on the wall

What happens if Walter gets run into by a drunk, and is off-line for 6 
months? Or permanently??

Ideally there should be an explicit plan for such things. And it should 
be public. Some benefits:

o We'd all know what to do if it really happens

o Firms and corporations considering D have less one-man-show worries

o It simply is prudent

o "The accident doesn't come if you're insured"

o Initial time wasted on copyright issues, language goal etc. vanish

My sincerest appologies, again, for writing this -- but it really needs 
to be addressed now and not on some rainy fall day.
