Gene Crick could not get a meeting with former Ch Martin to discuss the recommendation, the recommendation reportedly never went anywhere, and Gene Crick was not invited back to the CAC. Go figure. It's surprising that the Martin Administration did not have FCC staff returning to carving FCC orders into stone tablets.</p> You might note that the previous Consumer Advisory Committee, with the work of Gene Crick from Texas, made a formal recommendation to the FCC to have RSS feeds in order to make it easier for the public to follow FCC work.

The FCC needs a modern Content Management System. The announcement of today’s news isn’t available in HTML on the FCC website.

It has long been superseded by the Educational Broadband Service ("EBS"). If you add the ITFS feed to your reader, you will discover all of two ITFS public notices -- both of which are from 2002!!! My guess is that someone at the FCC set up those RSS feeds ten years ago but never made them public, and the FCC simply dumped all of its RSS feeds onto the new page.</p> I trust you overlooked the fact that the RSS feeds include one for Instructional Television Fixed Service (“ITFS”) applications — a service that has not been in existence for many years?
