I honestly don't think that that's a realistic issue that may cause problems for the TAG. At this point the problem of resources has been far more hurtful than that of coalitions. It's hard enough to get people to work on TAG stuff, if we can get a company willing to sponsor multiple participants we should welcome it. This rule optimises for completely the wrong problem. -- Robin Berjon - http://berjon.com/ - @robinberjon
