  5. No detailed design work.
     The Technical Committee does not engage in design of new proposals
     and policies. Such design work should be carried out by individuals
     privately or together and discussed in ordinary technical policy
     and design forums.
     The Technical Committee restricts itself to choosing from or
     adopting compromises between solutions and decisions which have
     been proposed and reasonably thoroughly discussed elsewhere.
     Individual members of the technical committee may of course
     participate on their own behalf in any aspect of design and policy
     work.
