Mikey, First of all let me say that I didn't find your contributions clumsy and, even if I did, that would make me feel more at ease with my own clumsy interventions over the years. Second, I don't think there is any reason why the GNSO via the Council could propose a webinar about the DSSA topic. Before doing that though, I would suggest three things: 1) develop an outline of the purpose and content of the webinar; 2) make sure the timing is right in particular with regard to the Board efforts; 3) survey the community to determine if people would participate.
