[rpd] measurable ? - Re: ToR Appeal Committee Review

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ]

Hi Paulos, Noah, all,

The PDP is very clear, there is no need for any reference terms which are discriminating authors vs participants. Further to that, the only way you can change that is by means of the PDP itself, not by anyone else different that the community defined rules.

I suggest reading the new policy proposal:

Jordi

    Noah,

    These seem to be good suggestions, however, they will only be useful to the Appeal 
    Committee if they are precisely measurable.

    I would hence like you to consider measurability of the suggestions and then frame them in a 
    way that they get to be precisely measurable for accurate decision making clearly  visible to 
    everyone.

    Regards,

    Paulos
