Dan Ruffner has personally written the most innovative sections of the M&P material (e.g. nested qual) and has gotten us within sight of putting industry materials specs in place for some of the newer handbook materials by stepping forward and drafting multiple iterations of these documents. He was able to break the logjam that was impeding progress toward this goal by recognizing and convincing others that at this point the perfect was the enemy of the good. If we succeed, it will be largely to his credit.
