Okay, so I still think a bunch of this should be done, but it didn't get
many replies last time. I'll annotate the list a bit. Maybe I can just
assume that silence = consent this time? ;)

Are any of the Django guys on this list? If so, do you mind merging the
bundles?

I think that someone's working on this

Apparently they don't have an overlapping mission, and Allan wants to
keep them separate. Okay by me :)

I still sort of feel this way. Maybe it belongs in "tricks" then, or
something?

What ever happened to the plan to get rid of "GTD" and change the name
of "GTD2" to just "GTD"? Or am I just imagining that that was the plan?

I'm not sure that Aparajita guy is subscribed to this list. Maybe
someone should just email him directly and ask about this?

Is anyone opposed to such a change? I think it would keep things
cleaner, but maybe I'm wrong about that.
