   Hallo Michiel,   
       
   Mv>WD> Worth the trouble?   
       
   Mv> Yes, I think it is.   
       
   To me it looks like a techie-thing ... "Nothing techie has been done for a   
   while, let's do something techie... gives the FTSC something to document"   
       
   Mv> First: it is not all that much trouble.   
       
   And I'm not advocating "against", only highlighting there's no demand.   
       
   Mv> Second: when the option is there, more nodelist clerks will probably   
   Mv> start using it.   
       
   The theory is nice, but in your position as FTSC-chair running an election you   
   know perfectly how difficult it is to even raise the attention of a large   
   portion of those regional nodelist clercs.   
       
   Expecting to get a "wow"-effect and kick-starting that part of the realm is   
   wishful thinking ... in my opinion.   
       
   Mv> Having the day number   
   Mv> in the header and the file extension reflect the number of the day it is   
   Mv> actually produced is more logical and transparant.   
       
   All the tools are present to achieve exactly that already ... have been doing   
   that for over 2 decades now.
