I don't mind the Smalltalk discussion proceeding as long as they
understand that the Meta decisions will impact their proposals. For
example, the Association advocates can create a full proposal, but the
Meta group might exclude it from the Core/Kernel. Which is to say, the
decision of what is contentious might itself be contentious!
