Sorry. It was just that the original doc went to the ALAC list as well
as _all_ the RALO lists. The only ones I'm able to post to are ALAC and NA.

My rant was multi-faceted, though, and clearly directed against the
original document as well as the subsequent discussions. I deliberately
kept individuals out of my comment because it was directed at the
groupthink indicated by the document and discussion more than any
specific contribution.

Perhaps some elements of my commentary --  such as that ALAC has no
business at this time reworking (and bloating) conflict of interest
guidelines -- were more subtly stated than others. :-)
