murrayc candidacy

Although I couldn't tell you off the top of my head what the GNOME foundation board does, even though I get their minutes, murrayc is a good person to have in a position where he can do something. He has done a good job with the platform bindings -- I dont thing that they would have the quality that they do wihout his leadership. murrayc for foundation board: let's give him more chances to do something.

Instead, the new focus would be on messages. I don't know why the shift has come about, but compare to CORBA vs. D-BUS. (I was StudlyCapsing before, following the API. Now I'm with the cool kids, hyphenated caps.)

djcb is right though, that the problem space is beastly. Activation, typesafe idl interfaces, blech!
