I think have a requirement of having been a PTL could be reasonable.  
Given the fact that I feel I have a hard enough time doing all I want to 
do as PTL, I wouldn't want to add TC at the same time.  Would want to 
feel like I was doing it at a time where I could give it the appropriate 
attention.
