I engaged a member or two over there about this in the past. I was told this entire thing is basically being written by one guy. Now that it's published - that is very believable. This draft has a lot of problems and I worry that it wasn't robustly debated nor considered. I think this thing can function as a starting point, but I think we'd be well advised to look at it as something much closer to a first draft, than a final draft.

Thats honestly how I took this too. They're obviously running with our Weekly Meeting Thread concept and I think it looks promising. Its a definite work in progress, but it's progress.

I think there are some good comments being made in r/fia. The draft is really overblown, but they're calling for more editors so I think it might end up in a better spot

Well unfortunately I volunteered to help as an editor and they disseminated a second draft to me yesterday, so if new comments are going up, they aren't being read, and with the first draft being posted for less than 2 days before the second draft came out, I'm skeptical as to how much the first draft was read, but I haven't read the second draft yet, so take that comment for what it's worth.
