[CCF] Scandinavian Activity Contest - A proposal

[jukka.klemola@nokia.com]

?
Currently we have 4 people as the committee.
It does not work for some countries.

How is this going help the situation?

The procedure already is what is suggested.
There already is a shared responsibility for organising SAC amongst the
managers.
Now you are asking for one additional person from each country to join
in.
I see this suggestion increase complexity and amount of discussion
without results.


I would like to see a committee that really is motivated to make SAC
happen.
Not all managers are capable of that.
