[GSBN] Fwd: Re: the google thread

[Mark Piepkorn]

Regarding the transparency of GSBN, I received the following from 
James, who hadn't been forwarded any discussion on the topic. (As for 
his building process, I'm still weighing the notes. Though the 
exchange got off to a bad start, I think he's demonstrated that he's 
a good and thoughtful guy, sincerely interested in feedback. It may 
take some time, but I do intend to comment. I'll post that here, and CC James.)
