Of course, this doesn't mean that we're saying "We can't
decide, so it's over to you guys".
It says "We think *this*. Can you confirm that we're not
talking shit, that this won't break anything we haven't
thought of and that we can all point back at this and say
'we *all* decided that', so no-one can give thesite a
kicking for it in the future if it all goes wrong"
In other words,
1) it removes 'us and them' mentalities
2) it gets a larger collective intelligence and experience
thinking it through
3) it provides a blame shield for anyone working on it.
Cheers
Martin
