    • The only reason the judge allowed non consenting non debtors (councils, individuals, charter orgs) to be part of the bankruptcy was that the analysis showed all creditors would be paid in full.  If that analysis was incorrect, then councils and charter orgs wouldn't have been covered.   I think most BSA members and most plaintiffs agreed the deal made was the best possible outcome, but there were plaintiffs that objected.

    • If the Scouts and parents and (?)Leaders are properly registered, the Council at least should have everyone's email and USPS addresses. Send the info directly to them. 
    • The Aims & Methods has a lot to do with it, but then what do you do when the SM insists its a youth led troop when its obviously not. Or, their idea of the Patrol Method is to mix up patrols (which is clearly discouraged in the troop leadership guides). The reason for refusing NYLT is the scouts might learn how BSA wants troops to function, not how the SM thinks it should work. 
    • As long as the troop is using the methods of Scouting and following the "rules" regarding youth protection, guide to advancement etc... I see ultimate leeway. The council and district events are not necessary. Whether or not the troop is actually providing a true scouting program via the methods is a different question altogether.
