Changes (by igloo):

 * cc: lemming at henning-thielemann.de (removed)

Comment:

 I think the mailing list thread is a better place to judge concensus for
 proposals. Using the CC list doesn't give us a way for people to be
 against the proposal.

 I've removed Henning again as he may not want to get a copy of all mails
 to the bug report.
