I dont think we should worry about vendors, their stupidity, and their 
lack of competence.

What we should worry about is focusing on producing technology that 
works, given the vast sum of experience and ideas in this group.

We need less save the world, and more change the world.  I would hate to 
see this group get sidetracked with "save the world" projects that 
produce little to nothing of an end result.  This is our opportunity as 
a group to move an entire industry in a direction we deem "best", lets 
not squander it by attempting to coordinate with vendors on end user 
configuration issues or other worthwhile but less disruptive practices.

(This is just my take, everyone is entitled to their own views of 
course.  I am NOT trying to detract from any of the ideas that have been 
presented to date (or in the future).  All of them have their own merit 
and worth of which I may or may not be qualified to judge. )
