Grant,
The developers of the application(s) in questions are aware of the
discussion.
I will leave it to them to respond.

I bring the discussion point at the weekly DAT Collaborative meeting
which we have every Wednesday.

I appologize that the DAT Collaborative charter does not allow
to submit contribution without joining DAT Collaborative.
But this is no different from Linux not accepting any contrubutions
without proper license.
Byt be rest assure that as a Chair I bring the concerns
and suggestions stated in email discussion at the DAT meetings.

Arkady
