I don't have a good answer to this, but maybe we could use Wikipedia's
method of garnering consensus before a major change is made? I don't
know how well it will work, given our relatively small numbers, though.

It would be nice if Andrei could step in and head up this process. But
then again, he's a busy man and only does D on his limited free time, so
it may be just a matter of waiting for a bit for him to pipe up.
