Responses to letters get published in Fastrack but there's no mechanism for reporting to the membership what's currently on the agenda.
It might be a bit of an overstatement but it's pretty safe to say that if you see an issue being hotly discussed here, SOMEONE has gone to the effort to officially bring it to the attention of the Board - so it gets forwarded to the ITAC. If you see a couple of people concerned about something here, it's less likely to have percolated up to the level where anyone cares enough to write a request.
Everything that gets proposed gets considered, albeit sometimes PAINFULLY slowly, if it counts on other decisions getting made first. The ITAC has been in that position for the past year (quite literally) clarifying and getting consistent about our internal practices, which accounts for some big delays. However, other requests have been stalled because we are forced to dig for technical information, often on older cars that are not well documented.
I'll take this opportunity to (again) mention that, if you want a rule changed, you need to write your request so that it expressly describes NOT ONLY what you don't like, but what you propose should be done.
If you think something is off with a particular car's spec's, you can simply ask for it to be reviewed. If your request is going to require technical information - and most do - you'll move the process along if you provide it, in some form that can be shared electronically (e.g., pdf copies of factory manual).
Finally, remember that the Board (and the ITAC) aren't arbiters of rules interpretations. We can't comment on whether your specific idea is legal or not, or explain how WE interpret rules. That's the responsibility of the protest and appeals process.
