> I will vote the opposite of whatever IP brokers vote.Their view is > strictly commercial whereas I am not part of that subgroup. i understand your position. but my problems are up a couple of layers. we have based our community's financial viability on recruiting a lot of new members. while having new blood is a good balance to us old fossils, the culture relied too much on unspoken common perceptions, practices, and goals. we are not good at articulating them and making them accessible to the new blood. so we write more and more complex policy documents, have lots of votes, ... [0]. and the world is changing, becoming more commercial, less academic and public service oriented. and some of us do not do as well with change as we might; a well-known trait of the, sad to say, majority gender. we need to get over it. i do not think we can, or maybe not even should want to, roll things back to the rosier (or so we fondly think) past. but we can try to move forward with some courtesy and civility and an effort to see everyone's viewpoint, especially of those with whom we think we disagree. and we can try to explain our positions and expectations a bit more clearly in order to compensate for the lack of documentation (that is not a plea for more policy documents or paperwork). randy -- 0 - this ongoing wg chair voting thing is such a great example. we had a small problem and the cure is a monster. hence my 'pigasus' (you have to google it; i was there) comment.
