Bad publicity is usually bad publicity as well. As I've said in previous posts, I do acknowledge and agree with the reasons why this has been proposed. There does need to be some cleaning up in the marketplaces. Certainly, there is a lot available ... but the quality varies by a wide margin. The thing that I objected to initially was the presentation of the proposal .. the wording was harsh and insensitive, and only led one to believe that the "shaming" would be equally so. Now that the community has given more feedback, it seems as though it may develop into something that might be useful ... if done properly and without maliciousness. The review committee should consist of people with varying levels of expertise and experience to make it a fair review. And the review system should be presented to all venues in this community for comment and suggestions before it is put "live".
