- I may have been a trifle unclear. I wasn't suggesting that the map
- coordinators *should* pro-actively look for bad links. The "have the time"
- being "have the time to change the map" given that they've been informed
- that a problem exists.
-
- The real questions are:
- - how should SAs report problem sites and links? To the
- regional coordinator? Rutgers?
- - Is the lack of entries in d.Top due to nobody reporting
- bad links, or that whoever's supposed to administer it
- has not got the time?
- - Is d.Top *supposed* to be issued as often as necessary to
- "patch" the maps?
