I agree with Bret. And even in case they formely decide not to accept a liaison from ALAC, we can use this position as an "informal" liaison to work with them, coordinating joint-meetings, open channel for working on the issues of common interest, inform them of what is going on around ALAC to GAC, or vice versta. izumi 2007/10/4, Bret Fausett <bfausett@internet.law.pro>:

ALAC can select a person in this capacity, but if the GAC will not receive that person (or any other person) in that capacity, they will be unable to work. which, to my way of thinking, is no reason not to appoint a liaison. The GAC can accept the liaison, or not, but either outcome makes a statement that we would wish to make public.
