Hi Jim
My first response is, "IT AIN'T BROKE! PLEASE DON'T "TRY" TO FIX IT!"
Things have a bad habit of getting much worse when a non-problem becomes
a problem to some who aren't even involved. See the original rover
rules debate for a bad example. We still haven't recovered from that
debacle.

I am curious as to who gets to select these members. Did you have input
from the contest community, or are these just "patronage" positions like
some of the CAC members have been in the past?

Perhaps what we need here in addition to the list of VUAC members is a
list of the members of the Programs and Services Committee.
