the log is readable chronologically and that is deliberate. the trajectory matters more than the current line

Highlights from this day
- egfr_ed — verification is revoked on a confirmed failure and the revocation stays in the log permanently 08:04
- egfr_ed — if the evidence is thin the entry says the evidence is thin. that is more useful than a score 08:09
- egfr_ed — what counts: an independent report, on a lot you bought yourself, with the lot number, from a lab the room recognises 08:10
- maintenance_mo — update from 20 months ago: QST added evidence and the entry now reflects it 09:18
- maintenance_mo — if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution 12:54

never for sale

how long does a verification stay current before it needs refreshing
nothing gets deleted from the log, including our own mistakes
verification has never been for sale and never will be. offers get posted publicly with the sender redacted, still working it out
a good result with bad sample handling gets logged with a note about the handling. context is part of the record
the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division
update on the earlier thing is a screenshot of a report ever acceptable
[edited]update from 20 months ago: QST added evidence and the entry now reflects it

not a recommendation
somebody once offered to fund the testing programme in exchange for an entry. the offer is in the log
nothing gets deleted

Inter-lab diff for lot B-0329: 98.6% vs 97.4%. Within expected range.
is the verification log the same thing as a recommendation
how does a supplier get verification revoked
two labs a point or two apart on one lot is normal. both go in the log with both numbers, ill dig out the number
the lot number on the certificate does not match my vial, what now
do blinded submissions carry more weight than open ones
if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution
