I disagree. The FIDE document is not fit for purpose. I see no point in putting it to Council to be rejected out of hand (and possibly to the long term detriment of a good idea). I think it would be much better to present a set of proposals which have been thought through and can be implemented to Council for fine tuning and approval.
Alex,
There is a lot of good things in the guidelines. They will be implemented from July 1st, and as a FIDE affiliate,
CS will be expected to operate them. I would strongly urge that CS looks at them very carefully, and produce a document and present it to FIDE, or at least to my committee in FIDE. We will meet in Tromso during the Olympiad.
