   I think, you missed another option. The attitude is: take it, or make it   
   better, or leave it (and maybe build your own theme park).   
      
   I don't see on what basis can someone *demand* something from the TC.

   It seems, despite your choice, the Forth standardization process that is   
   based on the forth-standard.org platform still bothers your.  Then why   
   don't you want to take part?
