For the Council's information, I did reach out to Kieren as soon as I saw this article.

I hope to be able to discuss with him and point out that what the GNSO Council did today was too approve unanimously a number of consensus policies and give itself additional time to look at a couple more. But in no way did we attempt to alter or edit the WG's work.

I think both Mikey and subsequently jumped the gun based on the debates over the weekend, which were just that....debates.

To post an article like Kieren has could have the unintended affect of stifling open debate during our sessions. I for one prefer open debate, but not if some are going to take that out of context.

We eventually got to the right place, but we needed to get there through debate and working through the issues. We should have been given the benefit of the doubt until we took final action.

Of course, it is a one sided story. The Council changed nothing in the
report or recommendations. It only changed it's own motion. But, we all
know that. Too bad Kieren didn't bother to get more facts before jumping
the gun with his article. He used to be a bit more careful.
