The silence is possibly due to several factors including: 1) This subject has been discussed for well over a year with no action other than an email debate, and statement. 2) The overall premise seems very much not worthwhile to many individuals and organizations due to several other factors. Just one of the factors dealing with the latter is the constant lack of action. I for one don't understand why the same people must continually beat the same tune on a variety of subjects yet have very little direct bearing on anything of relevance. But, with this does come some progress. I for one will continue to hope for progress. aloha, RJ Glass A@L On Dec 4, 2007 12:17 PM, Bret Fausett <bfausett@internet.law.pro> wrote:
If the ALAC disagrees, they will say so.
In reality though, we know that neither the ALAC as a whole nor its component organizations rarely comment on matters of substance, so silence is not a meaningful measure of anything. Nevertheless, a statement that North America strongly advocates elimination of the grace period altogether is a nice start. We did speak with one voice on yesterday's NARALO conference call, which is rare enough to warrant an underline in the comment we submit.
