[RAA-WG] [Fwd: ALAC submission to the RAA consultation]

[Hugh Dierker]

I for one was just plain sorry to see the failure. Maybe there are a hundred reasons why.
  Perhaps it was a combination of factors that can be cured in the future and I emplore those involved to try again. I think a good public evaluation would help immensely and we might find that matters as simple as holiday timing play a large role in success or failure of lists, list etiquette and a core group or steering committees may have been helpful.
   
  Best of Luck,
  Eric

  Dear Jacqueline,

Thank you for the latest set of excuses. It's
refreshing to know that you can still put a positive
spin on the ALAC's abject failure to provide any
solution-sets whatsoever.
