Re: [xmca] The Polls are OPEN!!
Mike:
I wonder if there is any way we could include "write-ins" on the ballot. People could upload manuscripts to the "Papers for Discussion" at LCHC and then these could be included in the vote.
This might address several problems which seem to be dogging our quarterly discussions.
a) It often happens that the articles on offer have almost nothing to do with what people have on their minds and what is being discussed on the list.
b) It sometimes happens that the authors chosen for publication in the journal turn out to be more interested in being published than in being discussed and do not take part.
c) It occasionally happens that people like myself clutter up the list with long posts which really ought to be articles but which have no chance of publication, at least not in their current form.
It may also be a good way of getting the writing mentorship project off the ground, and it might even return us, one small but much appreciated step, towards that pre-MCA tradition of an unrefereed and unreviewed newsletter, with writing that is unafraid to walk on the wild side.
