          excellent question.  As an outgoing councilor, I guess I can
          afford to be blunt here.  What is going on?  I quit the RDS
          PDP after two years of soul destroying work because it was
          blindingly clear we were going nowhere, and the Board was
          already working on a temp spec to override anything we were
          doing.  IS the same thing going to happen with the EPDP?  I am
          deeply concerned about the integrity of the multi-stakeholder
          process.<br>
