That's a pretty dangerous purpose, since most of the issues you asked about aren't simple enough for a "point of view" to tell you anything. One of the interesting things about this problem domain is that often there are right answers and wrong answers, and people's opinions don't change whether or not something is impossible. I would be vary wary of decisions made based upon "that sounds like a good idea from a one line summary that didn't include references to the actual proposal and any associated discussion"... Or perhaps you were hoping candidates would reply "I'll defer becoming involved in these issues until we receive the detailed proposals that are usually provided to the Council when it comes to discussing EAPI issues"? If so, it was a bit disingenuous to provide such a long list of questions. --=20 Ciaran McCreesh --Sig_/G=+oV2+OeP/UTsBqUH5xqCg Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.20 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlHR9IQACgkQ96zL6DUtXhGdIACeMW6BjylIyRKBDU8vpSzOZN/I pYMAninTdQUy2EGrS8TmMnWnQdx3UR30 =sCXq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/G=+oV2+OeP/UTsBqUH5xqCg--
