Yet I have seen no signs that Princeton is ready to pull up its stakes. [...]
This begs the question of, if Princeton did "pull up its stakes," where it would replant them. o How should Princeton, for example, measure the "quality" of its NSP? How can Princeton be assured that another NSP would be "better?" o Do you have any measurements which provide an indication of the relative quality of the major NSPs? o Do you have a ranking of the quality of the major NSPs based on, (in the absence of quantitative evidence), informal evidence? o Do you think the work of the IPPM group is likely to help? Why or why not? -tjs
