That is exactly what I would want to see a NANFA BAP program focus on! The
information is priceless. Distribution of progeny resulting from the
program isn't NANFA's business, other than the fact that participants not
release them into the wild. In addition, providing breeding stock should
not be a concern of NANFA's.

Brilliant idea. Any scored "breeder's program" should award WAAAAAAAY more
points for recording and distributing the "what worked for me and what
didn't"s records for posterity than for just showing the progeny.
