This begs the question of, if Princeton did "pull up its stakes,"
where it would replant them.
o How should Princeton, for example, measure the "quality" of
its NSP? How can Princeton be assured that another NSP would
be "better?"
o Do you have any measurements which provide an indication of
the relative quality of the major NSPs?
o Do you have a ranking of the quality of the major NSPs based on,
(in the absence of quantitative evidence), informal evidence?
o Do you think the work of the IPPM group is likely to help?
Why or why not?
