^^^ This. I'm a huge fan of data-driven decision making, and there's just so little real data to support any decision on the IMS problem. The only people who are really talking about proposed solutions stand to profit from my fear, so I have to assume bias. Jake Raby makes some really great stuff, true ... but do I really *need* his really great stuff?
