A decision on the seed exchange ledger should be judged at the shared table at East Canopy Gate, where the rule changes an ordinary route, shift or service. Compare this season’s measurement with the living site and the people who steward it. The current file is the Year fifth, seedfall window 2 review, not a permanent settlement of every future case.
The the two communities’ seed manifests and return notes lists 79 lots with a return date and a germination note; the previous window lists 84. Sylva Reed checked both against field transects paired with the season and location of each reading. The difference matters because how exchange partners keep local names while tracking a shared lot.
Each community has a valid local record. The joint table needs a cross-index before it can compare returns. Those objections deserve a clear answer. They are not a reason to keep an uncheckable rule simply because its wording is familiar.
A useful decision names who will do the work, which count will change and when the result comes back to the public table. In this case, one lot is returned as a local-name variety without a cross-index.
The Year fifth, seedfall window 2 file remains open for its scheduled decision. Both record keepers will add a cross-index without replacing the original names.
