Wasn't there a question if an author agrees to distribute the part under
a specific license? As in, if you change the license, do you need to
get permission from the authors, etc?

Are we still allowing us to rename parts? What about retire parts that
were a mistake, or a depriciated shortcut? Since we said that the
license is for other works as well, are those not allowed to be
removed/merged as well?
Is this all implementation? I think some of these should fit into
goals.

"migration" - do you mean converting to another format? To another
license?
> * One license or two (implmentation)
It's only partially implementation - some of the arguments that were
made were based upon goals, but I'm not sure about that.

I do want to move forward with this, I'm just worried that if I don't
say anything now, I won't be able to ask for clarifications later.
