In this case, a sample set of statistics was posted to the net several weeks ago with requests for comments (to which I, for one, responded favorably) When it was apparent then that there was general approval of the stats, a mail discussion was held, with format and frequency debated. It was decided that the stats would be posted in their current format at intervals of two weeks; room, of course, was left for change to adapt to changing conditions. If you don't like the stats now, why didn't you complain then?
