Wouldn't the answer be the second?
That was my understanding. But nothing during the actual season.
This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

The proposal is for all summer changes from henceforth. Meaning for as long as we have threads for active ME-related shows.
That's what I assumed, vs. just the summer of 2003.

Why only ME related? I would think it would be all shows, period.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'm pretty sure that Trudy was asking if the proposal only applied to *this* summer or if it would apply to all future changes to the regular cast that are announced at the beginning of summer. Wouldn't the answer be the second?
Nope. There has been considerable conversation that casting should be fair game period. Casting, official press releases, etc. If that's been discarded, cool.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I thought this was always about the cast list announced in what is now the upfronts, but before we were calling "listed on the website, or in official press releases" I never thought it applied to anything else.

Yeah, how the cast is announced for the fall season - main (opening) credits cast only. Just a loosening of what is an official promo.

Actually, that was *never* being discussed AFAIK. Everyone has repeatedly said that mid-season casting changes, guest stars, etc, are still spoilers.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
To be fair to Trudy, the original proposal did not limit itself to the summer break, but there was a quick consensus that it should. For the last two days I haven''t seen anyone post assuming that the final wording would include mid-season stuff.

There has? When?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I don't think there's been much (if any) serious suggestion that casting in general shouldn't be treated as spoilers on the board anymore. If I had to make a wild guess - always dangerous - I'd guess that Trudy's remembering some of the wider conversation we had about whether or not casting spoilers ought to be considered spoilers on a more philosophical level. You know, the arguments about whether it's spoilery to know that ASH is only doing ten episodes or whatever, that kind of thing.
