Don,

No one is suggesting that a full indoor community discussion is required. But your strategy of waiting to see if proposals are actually submitted to the AMA risks further frustration. Your comment, “If they are officially proposed then I think it will be time to address each point individually” is not a formula for success. It will actually be PAST time to address each point individually. I think Mr. Finn stated it nicely in an earlier posting:

“For those who haven't seen it, there is an article on INAV by Wally Miller proposing a set of rules changes. Given what has happened with recent proposals slipping in unopposed for lack of public circulation, it behooves us to consider the ramifications now rather than when the proposals get submitted for votes.”

All that has happened is one person posted their opinion on what changes they feel need to be made to various events. For example I can say all indoor models need to be green in color. I am not sure if that now requires full indoor community discussion just because I said it.

In general, waiting to see if proposals have been submitted to AMA or FAI is a mistake. Prior discussion is important in shaping the proposals or at least communicating possible problems with proposed rule changes. The other problem with waiting is that proposals can be submitted right before the deadline and there is little, or no, opportunity to develop and submit a more well thought out counter-proposal.
