Subject: Benchmark instance

We have two concrete proposals on the table: leave the instance as is, or
modify it to have Ed change his name.

Previous posts have presented arguments for both proposals.

We need to arrive at a consensus quickly, so that we can move on to finalizing
the taxonomy, and get to work on the queries themselves.

I ask that current and potential authors of the benchmark vote on these two
alternatives, or even suggest a third. Please do so as soon as possible. Please
send your views to this mailing list.
