I won't be ID much longer, but this certainly isn't the way to choose players for an Olympiad team, regardless of eligibility.
I'm not sure what has gone wrong exactly (I was as surprised as anyone that Matt was considered eligible for the Scottish title) but hopefully it can be resolved in some amicable and reasonable way.
My own opinion? Too few people doing way too much within CS - mistakes are bound to happen, even with experienced people at the helm.
One other point - I feel Walter Buchanan's posts (in particular) are a much-needed balance/check on what we do in CS. (Edit: That being said, not keen on the overly-personal go at Jim W. - no need for that)
