right. I was saying that the LSC needs to be qualified (as Orion
pointed out), AND that the LSC needs more representation from the
programmers. Currently, as far as I can tell, it has (from the stats I
could gather):
Jacob: parts author, reviewer(14 reviews in last 3 updates)
Steve: parts author, reviewer(185 reviews in last 3 updates)
Tim: reviewer(0 reviews in last 2 updates)
Terry:
Larry: reviewer(32 reviews in last 3 updates)
I know Steve and Jacob have written software... I guess I'm asking how
were these names selected?

I've asked you before - what do you mean by transparency? I think since
the LSC is a public body, it's discussions should be public. Why, I'm
sure Todd would be happy to set up a newsgroup here on LUGNET for those
discussions, and have only members of the committee able to post there.
But any mailing list that people could read it's archives would work.
Easy to set up too - a list that everyone can read, but only few can
post. Can have it autopost mails to a group on lugnet for easy reading -
that way it'd be easy for everyone to read, but we're not requireing people
to be lugnet members to post.
