I don't think the wheels of any bureaucracy turn quickly. There are two fallacies in bureaucracy: 1) With enough organisation, we can please all parties 2) Process can solve all of our problems My experience (and I suspect others) is an enormous budget of people paid to have meetings, not making much headway, if any, but not being held accountable for outcomes. Imagine a Department having paid a team of people for 30 years to make this happen!

> 2) Process can solve all of our problems I'm gonna have to stop you right there, if only because process gets a bad rap from people who have never tried to implement systems in which more than a handful of parallel agents can safely work without stomping on or interfering with one another. Process is critical to coordination. You cannot "thread-safe" without the right process primitives. While I'm using the computing term, I'm using them in a non-computing/abstract system way. Information doesn't magically communicate to the parties who need it. Process gives you the blueprint to quickly create an environment whereby people can do their thing, but information still propagates to those who need it. If people follow it.
