The first and most important measure to improve the
speed of the AC is
to reduce the necessary quorum to three members. Decisions are made by
a
simple majority. Any member of the arbitration
committee may request a
review of such decisions by the full committee.

Under this proposal, the size of the arbitration
committee can expand
to
meet the ever-increasing demands placed on them.
Preliminary judgements
leading to blocking pending a full review should be
possible within
minutes of a request.
That's very sensible. The slowness of the AC is it's main failing at the
moment. If we can speed it up to the speed with which Jimbo used to take
decisions, pretty much all the current problems will be solved. ~~~~
