Default RD's should be made known

I thought he made that representation to Mr Lyons. Please clarify Iconoclast.

In any event this issue is bigger than Bill Gletsos. There is simply no reason for the RD's to be kept secret. Where is the benefit to the ACF in doing so? I am a strong proponent in accountability and transparency at every level. That extends to publishing the Minutes of Council meetings in a timely fashion, among other things.

I have already stated that when I bumped into the CAQ Ratings Officer Patrick Byrom about a month or so ago, he told me that he believed the RD's should be made known. As such, Bill seems to be out of step with this state counterparts on this issue.

Bill recently stated, or suggested, on CC that Howard Duggan's rating was now higher than my own. Grandmaster Theatre showed everyone how much stock can be placed in such ratings. In my mind I dispensed with ratings years ago when a candidate master once told me that I needed to be playing the board and NOT the rating!
