[ExI] Alcor dumping "grandfathering"?

[Giovanni Santostasi]

Eugen and Max,
It would be good if these discussions would be open to the rest of the list
members. Clarity and transparency are good things in any organization. I may
be naive on this issue but I think bringing to light any problem and allow
public discussion and suggestions could be beneficial and even an
opportunity for growth.
Giovanni
