MR: Our story so far...




Poster: edh@ascc01.ascc.lucent.com (Alfredo el Bufon)

"Making an SCA web page is now a Warrented Job."

   "What a stupid concept!"

  "It's just an attempt by the BoD to control our Free Speech."

      "Hey, lighten up!  They made new Warrents to thank people for
       making spiff web pages."

   "Warrents are a lousy way to thank people.  You should thank
    people with Cookies."

      "Well, in a way, giving someone a Warrent is like giving them
       Cookie, since we all know Cookies go to people with Warrents."

  "That's not true.  I'm a Peer, and I'm here to tell you, a Warrent
   is not a stepping stone to Cookies.  And BTW, neither is being
   a Squire, Apprentice or Protege."

      "Really?  I thought sure they were."

  "No.  It just looks that way."

So, at this point, methinks, we can say that giving someone a
Warrent is _not_ a good way of thanking him for past performance.
(And, along similar lines, desire for a Peerage is not a
good reason to sign up with a Peer.)  Now we can go on to discuss
if there are any _other_ reasons to have Warrents for webmastership.
