=============================
*** Quoting Michiel van der Vlist from a message to Carol Shenkenberger ***

MvdV>  MvdV>> True up to a point, but that was not the issue at hand. Which

Now thats a complete non-sequitor.

 CS> The zones themselves will adapt to it or not as they desire.

MvdV> And that is what bothers me. It was not placed to a vote of acceptance

Why should the 2 zones most affected, ask the others for permission to fix a
problem and use the existing 000- FTSC documented specs to further narrow the
listings?

000- already existed.  It was flawed to to improper standardization among other
things.  Too much variation for others to account for.  Fixed to one
000-0-0-0-0 entry if there is no static and technical reasons prevent
-UnPublished- entry.

No one in Z1 was required to contact another zone to fix their internal lack of
continuity on such and then establish one.  It wou;d be like asking Z1 people
if R49 and R50 should combine.  Kinda not their place to say or not say.

MvdV> zones. No one. It was just pushed through. No consultation, no filteri
MvdV> no feed back, no checks and balances, no nothing. Input from other zon

Thats been 10 years or more since the 000- standard came out.  You are still
unhappy about it eh?  There is a big difference between 'ignored' and 'not
followed after discussion'.  You seem to have not noted the discussion ad
recall only the end product didnt go as you would have wished.


MvdV> This sets a dangerous precedent and opens the door to politicians maki
MvdV> more and more technically unsound decisions. What will be next? I don'

Collywobbles.

MvdV> is an obvious and serious conflict of interest.

You are free to feel such.  Since all ZC's are in there already, I dont think
it makes much differnce.
