No, I am thinking one page for License Decision & related conversation
One page for Name Decision & related conversation
Etc.

We are going to have a lot of these decisions to make...

I'm not saying it is the goal of this project, I'm just saying we're not
limited to plant objects in the long run once we achieve our initial (and
additional) plant-centric goals.

Either one works for me.

Doesn't matter to me. Address harvesters may be a concern for some. This
address of mine is already massively exposed to spam-scum-types so it
won't make much difference for me in that respect.

IMO make clear the purpose and rules of the list and open it up, if we
want to perhaps get more input/feedback/participation. I assume admin
(you, yes?) can remove and/or ban people who don't support the purpose and
rules. The unruly ones, that is. ;-)
