[NA-Discuss] [ALAC-Internal] Fwd: Re: [ALAC] Statement on Stakeholder Group Openness

[Danny Younger]

Beau,

If memory serves, all the substantive comments came exclusively from North American participants.  So why not just send it through as a NARALO statement to Tim Cole?  The importance is in the message communicated, not in whoever pretends to take credit for the Statement.

Take a lesson from the Internet itself -- If the ALAC can't be trusted to be responsible about getting its work done on time, then feel free to route around the obstacle -- 

regards,
Danny
