Sure, we cannot dismiss it; we should not dismiss *anything*. I can,
and will, however, disagree with it on the strongest possible terms.

Put simply, to begin with:

1. Remove the lottery completely. If a company meets the technical,
  financial, and other requirements, they are allowed to participate.

2. Remove the 60-day holding period and replace it with a reasonable
  60-day PUBLICATION period.

There are other points that I disagree with, but these are the two
main ones right now. Moreso, it appears that we have consensus on
these two issues, yes?
