Philip et al, Whether we are "leaping" or not, I agree we should have a discussion. And I believe it can start now, on this list. My opinion is that, except in the case of NomCom appointees (who represent no constituency), the matter of term limits should be left for each constituency to decide for itself.

Fellow Council Members, before we leap to a resolution on term limits could we possibly have some discussion on their MERITS?
And maybe some discussion on WHY this issue can be separated from all others such as combined constituencies, the merits of nom com members, the nature of the PDP process, the role of liaisons, the role of the CCNSO wrt to overlap issues, the profile of the GNSO and its chair, the interaction with the Board?
I find this enthusiasm of certain Council members quite odd given Council's earlier reluctance to consider something actually useful for the outside world like re-writing the PDP. (If you recall Council said its too early and will staff do some fact finding?)
