Wow that was poorly worded on my part (late on a Friday, sigh), sorry. 
 I just wanted to make sure that Eric since it was his original work. I 
saw emails from /several people/ who aren't platform committers who were 
keen to get involved, and hoped we could all proceeded in some kind of 
coordinated fashion for maximal progress.
So first off, profound apologies, Tom, for how that came across.
No problem I didn't ever felt offended.
But in the spirit of openness, I must confess that a problem I always 
have is that I work by visual.  I think I need pictures of committers 
who aren't in this hallway up on the wall to make me feel like their in 
the same hall.  Then they will be more part of my /consciousness/. To be 
honest I'm terrible with names and they just fly by without registering. 
 And unfortunately for me out of site is out of mind (I've always done 
terribly at managing remote teams, despite best intentions). I did know 
Tom was a committer.  It really helped that this year at EclipseCon I 
finally met Tom face to face. I'm explaining this here because I think 
its for me perhaps a more important e4 issue than the technical detaIs, 
which is about building and maintaining group consciousness.  Tom wasn't 
here sitting on the couches when we had coffee time discussions over 
Eric's modelling work.  And that's a problem (a cardboard cut-out of Tom 
with a little conferencing phone built in would've been perfect <g>). 
But email is such a poor substitute and things don't get recorded to be 
shared.
I will try to plot a poster of myself and send it over the big sea if 
that helps ;-) a cardboard cut-out might be hard to create but like Ed 
says if you can model it you can ... :-) and if done right you could 
even style me using CSS. Wow how many possibilities would that open.
In the meantime you can use this one
