one problem is that the developers are probably all sitting in the same room.

It is very important to discuss *every* issue on the mailing list
I have the list of members on the mailing list and your email is not amongst them. So it would be a good idea to first join the mailing list and then judge on the asumtions.
Totally agree with this.
totally disagree with this. My point is that this software has been under development for a year or so - and has been developed using the proprietary model. I looked at the mailing list archives and do not see one year's discussion there. The strength of free software is not that the code is released, rather it is the fact that the *full* development takes place transparently in public and the public can share in it from the word go.
