Then drop FD, it looks like it is just a waste of time, given that in
the "problematic" cases the dossier is just handed over to DAM for a
new full review.
But as things stand nowadays, I wouldn't be happy with that outcome,
given that DAM is more understaffed than FD (2 people vs 4), with
Joerg also involved in another time-consuming role (ftpmaster).
Hence I would more welcome one of the following alternative outcomes:
1) drop FD *and* integrate the current FD people into DAM; it looks
like accepting new members is the main part of DAM activities
anyhow, so why bother with an extra advisory board?
2) change the "It's DAM" fact above, from now on "it will be FD"
How do people feel about that?
Cheers.
