Interesting point on revitalizing the standards.  If you have any
specific comments on that, such as sections that need revising or new
information to add, I would recommend bringing them up directly with the
Advisory board (gnu-advisory@gnu.org) so they can be discussed.  Of
course, discussion on the GDN could lead to a community recommendation.

Yes, this will be critical and, I'm afraid, difficult.  I'll be going to
the GNU Hacker's Meeting [1] in Paris in August.  If we have something
up and running by then, I'll make a strong push to get people to
contribute.  There's a GNU Assembly on the last day, which would be a
good time to mention it.  However, it would also be a good opportunity
to introduce non-GNU-hackers to it since the general public is invited
to the rest of the meeting.
