I agree.  Except for Joop's early work, this orgainization would not exist.

Yes.  Outside monitoring is important, to assure the membership that capture
isn't an option.

Agreed.  And I expect that such arbitration would be conducted openly on the
Panel list, where everyone who wants to can see it happen.

OK.

Great fund-raising idea!  But do we take topics from external of our
organization for a fee?  I'd say no.  Otherwise external forces with money
(and we know who they are!) will quickly dominate our process!

OK.  Questions are, will Joop help set up the second booth, and who will run
it?
