Thanks for the draft! From a quick run-through of the patch (much |
| 16 |
obliged for that, thanks), it seems pretty good. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The major differences to the original doc are: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
1. Doing away with the Strategic/Operational lead split. We haven't |
| 21 |
had two people doing those jobs in 5 years, anyway. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
2. Translation project leads and "official" language status. Any |
| 24 |
comments as to the changes here? |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
3. Join-up process. No formal "X number of contributions per period |
| 27 |
Y." Works well enough for me, but then "how much does this potential |
| 28 |
recruit actually do for us" becomes subjective hand-waving. We would |
| 29 |
need a new metric to determine commitment over time. Ideas? |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Anyway, if you can clarify your thinking on these 3 points, just so I |
| 32 |
know where you're coming from, I'm fine with the proposed update. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
How about the other GDP members -- any thoughts from the rest of you? |
