   ...sorry - on the few occasions where I want to address a message for
"action" by the Panel, and for the "information" of the members, one side
effect is a double-post to the Panel - again sorry.

   ...nope - but that was not the main point, which I did not think I
needed to explain - but since you asked, read on

   ...whether the person or persons to whom the Panel expresses their
wishes cares to listen is not the point - the point is that the Panel go
on record with what they wish!

We have a member tell us publicly, they are going to do "X" work. If the
Panel does not make a public statement to the effect that the member
should cease and desist, then that member can, rightfully, presume the
Panel has given their tacit approval for the member's actions!!!

Of course, if that is the Panel's intent...

   ...huh? Right now, the Panel's wishes is the only thing (so to speak)
that raises this organization above the status of an unruly mob.

   ...double-huh?

I would expect this Panel would certainly understand that you have to deal
with more than just the "good-stuff," and much more quickly. Prior Panels
appeared to never have learned this.

That's one reason why they became prior...
