I'm confused; did you miss the discussion we had tuesday night? I gave
a whole presentation on just this topic. :)

We didn't come up with any final conclusions yet, but we certainly 
had discussions. Nothing here at the sprint will be a final conclusion
on this anyway; we will post a proposal.

Anyway, I posted about this to the mailing list and wiki before the
sprint itself, too:

The arguments presented in my presentation are also sketched out there.
See also some discussion about this earlier on this mailing list.
