I am not immune to the irony in complaining about the ALAC's
disenfranchisement in the GNSO document, while simultaneously
complaining about the ALAC disenfranchisement of its own community. It
sometimes makes one wonder if ALAC is worth defending -- but doing so is
better than standing by silently while a system is proposed that invites
gaming while further slowing the At-Large maturation process..

Danny, can you -- maybe together with Wendy, Brett and Beau -- draft a
brief statement that expresses our disgust, both with the document and
the process that produced it? I would very much want to get NARALO
consensus on it and submit it before the public comment deadline.
