    EP1 and P4 are nothing else but standards ... maybe FTSC could deal with them...

    Eventually. But first we need a modernized P4 with regards to the ratification process.

    It's obvious (judging by previous attempts) that the coordinators are not competent enough to ratify a new policy. Plus, of course, we have no IC...

    Hello Björn,

    The FTSC should stick to what the 'T' in "FTSC" stands for and stay away from the 'P' in policy and politics. And vice versa. A politician exerting undue pressure on a technician was the main trigger for me to resign as FTSC head honcho.

    It's obvious (judging by previous attempts) that the coordinators
    are not competent enough to ratify a new policy. Plus, of course, we
    have no IC...

    The last attempt to rewrite P4 did not fail because of incompetence of the *Cs,
    it failed because a very small number of renegades deliberately derailed the process.


    Cheers, Michiel

    I think that falls under the label incompetence. YMMV...

    And were dumb enough to take credit for it.
