[governance] JPA - final draft for comments

[Parminder]

The remark

"I would of course like it even better if all of us can agree that "JPA 
should end and a we agree on an MOU for a transition'. "

was only answering Lee's formulation and Carlos's agreement  to it. See 
the emails below.

When I say 'I would of course like it even better...' after giving more 
definitive comments in the earlier email, it is clear that I am not 
trying to queer the pitch as you suggest I am trying to do.

As for expressing 'the views of more people than those speaking up here' 
lets not even open up that debate here. BTW it Micheal's Gurstien's pet 
theme :). You may want to see his emails.
