Just tell me where to operate CW, QRSS, WSPR and JT9 etc and I will
willingly follow any gentleman's agreement or more formal plan.

Personally I think a "light touch" outline bandplan IS now needed. No
rules, just a sensible way of organising that will maximise everyone's
enjoyment of their chosen modes with minimal interference to other amateurs
and to NDBs. People do not have to rigidly follow it, but it would benefit
all if we did.
