Dru, the issue here is that we don't know exactly all that is being planned as business, because it hasn't been released. So, we don't know what are the plans for the BCG. So far, we knew there was going to be a certification, but now there is a whole bunch of things we are in the dark, like the Training Centers, trainers certifications, and now the ethics code.
So, what are the plans? Could we have at least some of the topics that will be on it?
Also, about biz plans: a certification group for sure would have a biz plan before the cert plan! It's so obvious. The only problem here is only that it's still not public, so we feel like shooting in the dark, asking dumb questions, discussing matters that have already been solved, and all that.
oh, just to make it official: I'm against the code of ethics, specially because I don't know how we could be controlling that, and it could be used to black list IT professionals for obscure reasons...

Who said the business plan wasn't a priority? Who said the business plan wasn't started before the cert plan, or for that matter before the Group even got together? Once all of the negotiations are finished and the ink has gone to paper, it will be published and made publicly available.
