to set the stage...  I made the original recommendation that we do
something new, since wac has become too easy.  I really don't mind
beeing the "keeper" of the suite.  I also don't mind if Bruce is
willing.  We chat by phone regularly anyway, and on ICC nearly every
day, which means he can do as well as I can or better...

I only want to see something that we can use for at least a few years
to report/compare results...
