My point is how fast and how flexible can a committee like this decide |
| 15 |
on global project issues |

Right nobody came with a proper solution yet the problems still exists. |
| 36 |
The same problem will probably pop up again in the future, recycling the |
| 37 |
previous discussion and go back to sleep again. Someone has to decide |
| 38 |
and vote for the least worst solution before the problem goes back to |
| 39 |
hibernation, otherwise you are back to square 0. This is no progress |
