Well, let me ask this -- are answers simply gathered by having the candidates edit the wiki page for the questionnaire? If so, there seems to be very little work required for that step. Larry, it seems to me that having people submit answers to you to just transfer to the wiki is not time well spent for anyone. Is there some reason we wouldn't want candidates to just put their answers on the wiki? I could be missing something here. If they could, then really the bulk of time that Larry would have to expend is just (1) soliciting and posting questions on the questionnaire wiki page by May 5, and (2) emailing the candidates that night to let them know they should start posting their answers, due the 11th.. And if there weren't enough questions, he could refer to previous outings to gather a few. Does that make sense? -- Paul W.
