Hmm.  Yes and no.

If the standardizers of hammer design want to establish a better hammer
standard and want "user input" on the subject, should they advertise the
fact in the Journal of Tool and Die Making, or in the Communications of the
Association of Cabinet Makers?

If the keepers of 'C' are interested in its usefulness in various
applications areas, then one would expect them to *solicit* that input by
addressing those application people in their appropriate forums.
