Re: [gnso-contro-wg] rev 01. of the controversial names report

Hi,

I am not trying to say that the subgroup cannot suggest changes to  
the the items supported under RN1.  But I do believe that these  
recommendations form a default that we need reasons to move away  
from.  If we decide to include a recommendation that alters one of  
RN1's recommendations, then we need to determine whether that new  
recommendation has subgroup support or minority support.

I request that anyone who believes that a dispute should be possible  
from groups or individuals other then SOs and ACs suggest a method  
for determining the means by which these entities can be determined  
to have standing.  Then as a group we can determine whether the RN1  
based recommendation or the new recommendation is the one with strong  
support.


Personally: I am comfortable with the recommendation made by RN1 in  
this respect.

a.
