[NA-Discuss] registrant advisory committee

[Jacqueline A. Morris]

Hi Darlene
Actually it seems as if there's more discussion on policy on the 
internal list recently (Delhi and lead up to) than there actually has 
been in the past 2 years. There's also a lot of policy discussion on the 
individual WG lists, and much less (almost none) on the public At Large 
list. If you recall, the call for  the drafting of the At Large response 
on the JPA to be moved to the public list (and the actual moving) was 
done by Vittorio, Izumi and myself.
