consensus on this list is for keeping everything exactly as it is.


I'm pretty sure there's no such consensus.

I do, however, see a rather strong consensus-of-the-speakers against using MS-Word document format for anything "official".

I think we need to tackle this whole issue, if we do decide to
tackle it, in a much more systematic way.

- what are our functional requirements?
- which of them are not met today?
- what are the possible solutions, and what is their practical
  and operational cost?
- which, if any, solutions should we adopt, on what timescale?

I believe that if we took a systematic approach like that, the issue
of how we determine consensus would be broken into enough small
steps that it really wouldn't be an issue.
