黑洞社区's last "At your service" set of legal questions and answers (3 March) very helpfully summarised changes in the JCT98 standard form.

But, helpful to whom? The team's answer was clearly directed at the QS, yet none of the changed content of JCT05 appears to alter QS' duties under the form. On the other hand, all of the changes listed affect the architect. So, shouldn't this advice have been directed at them?
