    I believe the idea with a small group to do the writing is good, but I
    believe the start must be a discussion on the mailing list about what
    we want and need for SANE v2.0. After this discussion (which should
    be limited in time to avoid a never ending story :-), everyone with
    interests in SANE v2.0 should be visible, and a group can be chosen.
    I suggest David chooses the group, to avoid confusion. The group
    should then be able to write a new specification based on the input
    given.

    I do not believe keeping the initial discussion in a non-public forum
    will do any good. Writing specifications, on the other hand, is not a
    democratic process, and is better left to a small group.

    I will not have time to participate in the group.
