Kavouss, I am a pretty simple person. I am not saying it should be win lose or lose lose. I just would like to see the GAC (or any group) clearly state what a win win situation would be in their minds. The GAC as a group has not stated clearly what that would be. We shouldn't be in a position of having to guess. The GNSO statements have been clear. The Board statements have been clear. The ALAC statements have been clear. I would love for the GAC statement to be just as clear and state something like what I think some GAC members on this list is stating, namely, "we support the definition of consensus as stated in the draft, but only if the 2/3 threshold is adopted." (If that is what they mean). I just have never seen that stated. Thanks.

Where in writing has the GAC stated that it will reject the accountability proposal of the 2/3 threshold is not in there.
I didn't intend to suggest that they'd stated that in writing, but rather to suggest that the GAC had consensus around the 2/3 number. But this'll teach me to go from memory, because I was relying on my recollection of the Dublin communiqé. In fact it does not exactly say that the GAC has consensus about the 2/3 threshold, so I'm wrong. I still believe that the compromise position is an effective way forward that actually gives no additional real power to the GAC (because of the new Empowered Community) while yet granting the 2/3 number that many seem to think is important. But the claim in favour of 2/3 is indeed weaker given the GAC's stated positions.
