Receiving team documentation

Permalink Submitted by Frank Merrick on Tue, 10/13/2015 - 10:24.

"Hi Liron. We had talked about requiring some documentation briefly, but did not want to turn this into a legalistic exercise. Our working assumption is that most teams, in keeping with the ethos of Gracious Professionalism, will not mislead about their support for other teams, once presented with reasonable definitions they are told they must adhere to. With the number of teams applying for Chairman's Award, some percentage certainly will still intentionally mislead, but we don't want to punish those who don't by requiring additional paperwork."

I wonder where Frank got that particular phrase from Hi Frank!
