My recollection was that there was plenty of activity (and growing). Then
again, that was a lot of years ago!
If I had to guess (and this would be only a guess) there were people getting
section appointments simply to operate in the CD Parties & it was ceasing
to be quite what it was originally intended to be.
I clearly remember the NAQPs being launched as a direct response to the end of
the CD Parties -- they were meant to replace them. They have certainly
more than done that!
