Attached please find the Minority Statement that Zahid and I
have drafted, based upon the earlier consensus document agreed by the BC,
further comments from Members during this STI process, and our own negotiation
and participation efforts within the STI team.
I also include Zahid’s version 1.0, which I have
edited drastically due to focus, length and repetition. He has not had a
chance to review my version 2.0 yet, either, as he is hopefully asleep right
now.
Margie, this is tentative, subject to modification upon formal
review of our membership, but Zahid and I believe it represents consensus of
the BC. We ask you to please hold it, and do not submit the Initial
Report to the Council, until at least 3pm PST today, to allow our members the
chance to offer comments to me and Zahid, for possible further editing today.
Thanks,
Mike
