With regard to the proposal, the original proposal was sufficiently far
back in the thread, and there ere enough ideas about modifying it, that
I am not sure I can construct exactly what you intended. Your recent
message in this regard in which you restated the general shape helped.
I have seen some of the ideas for "contribution" and some discussion of
same, but ...
being able to look at real data would definitely help. I understand
that the lack is not your doing. And the secretariat and tools team
folks have other things on their plate. Just hard to judge.
Yours,
Joel

If we can find a way to get the registration database imported into the
datatracker, that would permit one to run some experiments. We need that
data, because we need to know if someone is 3/5 qualified already.

I have written some specific ideas (close to, but not specific wording for
BCP10) on this thread. If that was insufficient for you to evaluate
conceptually (parameters can be tweaked); can you tell me in what form you
think it needs to be presented?
Or is this really a continuation of the above paragraph; and really you are
saying you'd like to be able apply the process against real data, and observe
the results? (running code)
