Small but otherwise happy podlings

2012-01-08 Thread Benson Margulies
This has been the subject of prior conversations, but I'm opening a thread in some hope of reaching a definitive resolution. Some of our non-graduating podlings have a common problem. They look good in all ways except growth. This inhibits graduation from 2.5 standpoints: 1) they are dubiously

If the Incubator is not sure that a podling is small but healthy, then would the board be in a better position to make that judgement after graduation? In the case at hand (Isis), I'd propose that the IPMC could assert that they are healthy -- with an asterix. Never having seen them
