Ya'll remember the heated discussions we've had about the leveling of the playing field between publics and privates and our lack of desire to contribute to that deconstruction process? Judging from the lack of response to Camille's posting below, I would assume nobody's read this yet. Camille, please don't take that silence to imply consent. This is not something we should entertain without discussion. We decided once ( before you were on board, I think) to exclude privates from the infrastructure we have built with public funds. Please DO NOT go far down that road without consulting the entire steering committee. Thanks.
