With the only exception in the past 19 years of doing feasts being the 
upcoming Hafla (which menu BTW I recieved no comment from the list on), the 
above policy has always been mine also. Is it a good policy? I think so. At 
the very least it prevents people who have little of no knowledge of period 
cooking no opportunity to turn a perfectly good feast into a psuedo-period 
feast and no opportunity for them to set the rules  for the part of the game 
I play.
