Don't get me started about committees!
Or democracy for that matter! What's wrong with a good old dictatorship - at least things get done that way.

Recent 1954 threads have made me wonder if other forms need a top down definition rather than being shaped by the people? Jazz seems to evolve organically and classical embodies early music to modern composers, but folk requires authority from outside to determine it according to some sources.

Is folk self-regulating or decided from above?
