Is she going to require some sort of license or certifications? I wonder how these license requirements will affect these, and other, informal occupations.

The great thing about this particular story is that we finally have a story on the idiocy of many occupational licenses that appeals to the media. I think all the attention it is getting is great, and hopefully it will lead to many people thinking carefully about an issue most people don't ever question or pay attention to.
