Hi, you must be new round here. ;)

It depends on circumstances, really. At the moment I'm concentrating on
replacing decliners' work. If someone appears genuinely to be unaware, then
it's certainly more sensible to try different avenues to contact them than
to remap.

But where there's an "undecided" who I know very well is aware of the
issues, has strong opinions on them, and just hasn't clicked the button
either way (such as sherbourne and 80n in the UK), I won't have any
compunction about replacing their edits. There's an outside possibility on
2nd April that I'll have wasted my time, but that's a risk I'm prepared to
take.

cheers
Richard
