MV>> I say the signal is clear.
AI> What signal?
None of the members who's term expires having ambition for another term? The FTSC's number of members dropping below the required minimum tomorrow?
MV>> The FTSC is brain dead.
AI> That is just insulting to the FTSC members.
Just saying it as I see it. It was meant to describe the FTSC as a whole, not individual members.
But now that you mention it: Four of the six members that do not have their term expire tomorrow should never have been in the FTSC to begin with. See my Fidonews article of 25 March this year titled "Why R28 did not vote".

Documenting current practise has been demonstrated to be an exercise in futility.

Thank you. But I am afraid I failed in protecting the FSTC and Fidonet from the political games played by the top. The FTSC is a toothless tiger and I failed in doing something about it.
AI> I think you did your part. Why step on it now?
I am not stepping on it. I am just facing reality as I see it.
