I am sorry, but i just don't feel up to Centralisation any more...all i can forsee is the same big units setting the agenda by sheer force, everbody else cutting each otehrs throats in the spaces left....no progresion at all....
i would like to see Quality (perhaps even Experience) as assets with commercial value/demand....if this Whole-Archaeology-Thing is going to continue as a commercial enterprise, then we need to start putting Money Value on Standards/Results/Research....
( eg In a 'proper' market system copyright might help ensure that Quality and Experience are equitably valued)
I don't know about a solution - but i am not happy about a professional body dominated by big commercial groups/interests, when it is they that should be under the most scrutiny! Not until i see some of the shoddy practice I already know about being dealt with!
It is really very simple.
That is how to demonstrate the value of the IFA - currently, anything else just seems like coercion or bureaucratic take-over to me.:face-crying:
