Sounds like a good idea -- but you don't have to wait for FESCo -- the
Committee has a lot of stuff to do already and the members to the work
in their spare time, too.

Someone inside or outside of FESCo that cares about this particular
problem could just work out a detailed plan what to do. Then FESCo will
probably simply ACK it and say "thanks for your help.
