On the voluntary work front, I think that it is admirable that there are units offering the opportunities and people taking them up. It's a great way to get some extra experience or to try something new.
The problems occur if we expect that to be the norm in commercial archaeology, with competitive undercutting during the tender process being backed up by voluntary labour to get the job done.
