No. This is not about petty bureaucracy; this is about setting transparent participation rules for a global community. Feel free to disagree about ATLASIII utility but that was a discussion that should have been had after ATLASII, not now.

Hi Evan,

Simply put, it wasn't about you.

Of course it's not about me. But it *is* emblematic of one of the causes of dysfunction I have repeatedly identified within ALAC: Focus on petty bureaucracy rather than on best use of resources in service to the bylaw-mandated task.

I never said that I was surprised at the result. But thanks for helping prove my point.
