Thanks for the draft! From a quick run-through of the patch (much |
16 |
obliged for that, thanks), it seems pretty good. |

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? |

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. |

How about the other GDP members -- any thoughts from the rest of you? |
