OK, I'll add this link, but I'd feel more comfortable adding this if there was a URL I could quote for the opposing view, and hence be more balanced. But I guess no-one has bothered to write a manifesto. If someone has or does, let me know.
The purpose of the FAQ entry isn't to support a particular view, but to serve as a "State of the Community" notice.
