thanks for putting that charter draft together. it's grown a bit since the last time i looked at it. :-) i'd like to support Marilyn Cade and George Kirikos and request that we a) slow the process down b) have a constituency conference call c) start circulating a marked up version, or have some other mechanism whereby we can debate each section (i like George's "bite-sized" approach to the conversation) d) move out into the sunlight and put this conversation on the public list i too am concerned about some of the changes that have made their way into this draft and would like to see a healthy debate before we vote the document up or down. mikey - - - - - - - - - phone 651-647-6109 fax 866-280-2356 web www.haven2.com handle OConnorStP (ID for public places like Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc.)
