3311 -
331101 - Follow up ref SDS 6 0000, ref SDS 5 0000.
331102 -
331103 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Eric Armstrong who agrees with Jack
331104 - Park's call in a letter, ref DRP 1 0001 dated 010908 that proposes
331105 - improving email to improve productivity because laziness causes people
331106 - to press the reply button, rather than visit web sites. ref SDS 6 0001

331110 -      a.  Is as easy and comfortable to use as email.

331112 -
331113 - ....which aligns with Eric's planning over the past two years,
331114 - summarized on 010908. ref SDS 6 FV4G
331115 -
331116 -         [On 010916 Eric report SDS enables amazing memory using

331118 - ..
331119 - Eric submits more planning for improving email using "maleable
331120 - archives." ref DRT 1 SX6F
331121 -
331122 -      On 000824 Eric was not in favor of archives, ref SDS 1 7O9I, so
331123 -      today "maleable" archives seem to be acceptable.
331124 -
331125 -      He proposes some sort of voting procedure among an unspecified
331126 -      electorate for rating and maintaining information in the record.
331127 -      ref DRT 1 00UQ
331128 -
331129 -      Apart from any apparent reason for this procedure, there are no
331130 -      details about how voting occurs, e.g., once a year, once a week,
331131 -      whether an entire submission is voted in or out, or just parts,
331132 -      who selects the stuff for the vote.  How is the vote tallied and
331133 -      verified.  How are voting rights protected.
331134 -      ..
331135 -      How will Jack's laziness factor impact voting and oversight
331136 -      of fair elections?

331139 - plans. ref SDS 2 0001
