Perhaps an ongoing policy discussion in the Staff conference would be 
in order.  The idea would be to discuss practical implications of 
policy changes, and perceptions of implicit changes could be discussed 
and validated.

One of the strengths of Grex is that the policies by which we operate 
are not vast and complex, but one of the weaknesses of our system is 
that the fluidity of our policy sometimes results in controversial 
judgement calls, and over time, resolving those controversies has 
become a more difficult and noisome process.  So the logical responses 
are either to increase the degree to which our policies are clearly 
codified, or take steps to insure that there is broad and clear 
understanding of those policies by those charged with their 
implementation.
