Should create a DIPW process then, duck the foundation and any

between the reviews. What's the point of a "formal review"
when there's just Walter talking to himself (rip Andrei). Why
waste everyone's time on formalities when they obviously are
irrelevant?
The formal assessment isn't Walter by himself. Atila took
Andrei's place in that role. There is no automatic approval.
Had Atila objected to the DIP, Walter would have had to either
convince him to come around to his point of view or revise the
DIP to meet Atila's concerns.
I'd love to see the transcript of that. What was included in the
DIP was rather short
(a single sentence) compared to other DIPs.
