Information. Who has it, who gets it. When and how?

So both slates want to provide more information to the membership.

Currently there are minutes on the USFA website, but they don't contain much actual information on the details that seem to matter to folk at the moment like the state of the budget or the status of the IT process.

Folk still seem to be playing information gotcha's recently so what do both slates intend to do about the nature of the information that will available and how will it be available?

This would seem to be fully within the purview of the Secretary, so I'm not sure how much of a contrast point it is between the two slates (since Brad is unopposed).

I suspect that the secretary (unless very efficient) probably will not sit, take minutes and disseminate those minutes for every committee. So no, it does go beyond the secretary.

This leaves aside the policy decision of what information is to be released - all financials, some financials? all policy reviews/discussions, only some? etc

Even if Brad is going to do all that, then I for one would still like to hear what he plans to do with information. Available to everyone, to everyone who knows his home phone number, every one who knows the super secret handshake?

Say for example the preliminary study of using a fixed stipend to cover refs. I believe that information, or rather the information that that information resided within the universe of known, as opposed to unknown information, surfaced in a previous thread.

I for one am hoping for something like this for all fencing information:

I'll help lobby with you for that. (As I sit here eating my salmon egg scramble.)

plain salmon, smoked or home made gravalax?

Smoked. We'll have to switch to another fish for a while, given that the fishing is so restricted right now.

doesn't it have to be bagels?

No flamagels, unless you wish to forfeit your NAC fencing privileges...

[Inquartata]

What about imtiation flamagels? Like foam-rubber ones with red crepe "flames" glued to 'em?

[Capt. Slo-mo]

Perfectly acceptable, except in Nebraska.

[Inquartata]

Is there a legal requirement that all burning bread projectiles be made from corn in Nebraska?
