Hi Philippe,
it sounds great. Awesome. But still, it doesn't make much sense to me,
sorry.
Saying people can 'edit' is of course bound to cheer people up - but if you
don't understand *what* you're editing, it is also bound to either become a
mess, or either just become what you pick it to
Hoi,
When you consider a new project, it is important to consider how it will
fit in. Just being able to have 3d images makes sense when people can view
them. Making them only available does not strike me as that interesting.

Florence, I think you gave a great description of the process, and I agree
that we should aim at the degree of transparency achieved in it. Actually,
if I would be in charge of setting such a review panel, this is close to

Hi All,
Firstly, congratulations to Phillipe on a very richly deserved promotion!
I'm sure that you will do very well in your new role.
However, I must concur with Lodewijk in stating that the idea behind the
new department is still not entirely clear to me. It's not about advocacy

The name is misleading and confusing as best. This very conversation
proves it. In consequence, the naming is bad.
On behalf of the community, but do you have even community approval?
I'd like to read the strategical report of your consulting firm about

I just want to put in a bit of my opinion. This is simply my opinion.

I put together a short explanation of how clicktracking works, what data it

captured in the AFT5 FAQ. Feel free to contact me off-list if you have specific
