To be honest, this doesn't even need a GLEP so much as a website or |
10 |
something. If somebody consolidated all this stuff into a reasonable |
11 |
format, I bet that half the devs would pitch in and make their |
12 |
contributions. The only thing that might warrant a GLEP is a policy |
13 |
decision that all development policies must be documented or linked from |
14 |
that site to be binding, or something like that. |

I don't think that for the council to make a policy decision that there |
17 |
needs to be a GLEP. Sure, it is the best way to make big changes, or |
18 |
changes that require some level of formality. However, the council can |
19 |
still show leadership in affirming their agreement on issues even if it |
20 |
isn't a formal affair. I'm sure every other town government in the |
21 |
Western World has taken a vote in support of their troops or something |
22 |
like that without going through the official lawmaking process and all |
23 |
that - it is just a gesture. |

I don't have the time to create such a website although I would agree |
26 |
that it is sorely needed. Hence, I will try to be careful in throwing |
27 |
around criticism - it is much easier to bring problems to the table than |
28 |
solutions... |
