[SoaS] [IAEP] Announcing the creation of a SoaS Decision Panel

[Sean DALY]

"Sugar on a Stick" is not trademarked; my position is that it should
be, and the sooner the better.

I'm all for changing our strategy, marketing and PR, but there needs
to be compelling marketing reasons for doing so. I haven't heard any
yet. Like throwing out code, doing so has a cost.
