I understood Ralph to be saying that we ought to allay the fears of
some Squeakers that standards work means placing a limit on the
vitality and creativity of the Squeak community.  Hence the longer
motos such as Eliot's (which I also happen to rather like btw).

Peter, are you saying that we should not ignore the Squeakers apparent
concerns, or address them in a different way?
