There are lots of parallel efforts going on these days.  The 
question is always one of the tightness of coupling that requires 
assets and resources to be expended in maintaining the 
overlaps given the coupling.   HumanML *is* just a set of 
abstract topics.  The rest is in the applications.

I enjoy Paul's posts.  I simply wish they were more targeted 
to assiting us in the current work on the draft products over 
recruiting people to join an organization working on its own 
IP.  I don't object to the IP; I don't have to time to help 
further that goal.

I agree with most of what you say, Len, but I do think Paul's 
initiative can be a fruitful parallel effort, and since it is aimed 
at a five-year time frame, is likely to evolve over time, as these 
efforts always do.
