There are parts of it I can get behind. Taken together, it is too much. Retiring the role of Champion sounds like an idea whose time has come. We gave the Champion additional oversight responsibilities a while back -- but how many times since then has having that additional layer made a difference? I also think we can do without Shepherds -- in fact we are already for a lot of podlings because Shepherd participation is spotty. What has changed in the last year and a half is that we no longer ignore it when podlings fail to report -- we put them into "monthly" and review the situation month to month. Between that and requiring Mentor checkoff, we'll notice 90% of podlings that go adrift.
