that's not what i said at all, or what i was implying. and your point 
is a straw man argument: build up a false premise (that i am against 
goals or direction), then knock it down and show how bad my argument 
was.

the point i'm getting at is why do i (or anyone else) need to rely on 
some other group to set the direction or goals. it's not goals per se 
that's a problem, it's who sets them. the way this is going, several 
people have suggested a small group should set policy, goals, direction, 
whatever, for the other 30,000 who map, with no mandate whatsoever.
