[PUP] Any suggestion - or PPM should die?

[Jon Hill]

While the discussions are interesting, I don't think the PPM is achievable
without a set of reasonably narrow requirements.  And there will never be
more than a couple of us that agree on any one set of requirements although
cost may be a good starting point - I'd vote for the $500K to a million PPM.

Someone recently made the suggestion to concentrate on the systems that go
into the PPM rather than the PPM itself and that would probably be a lot
more productive.

Which begs the decision on direction... a small $300K primitive (but
admittedly very reliable) boat, or something between $500K and a million
that has modern equipment and comforts, ala our houses and cars.

Instead of endlessly debating this, I say lets put it to a vote and then
proceed accordingly. Those who want to participate can the do so.
