[gnso-idn-wg] Meaning of something being at support level

[Avri Doria <avri@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

We have had certain parts of the meeting suggesting that various  
statements of support be removed.   If these were statements of  
agreement, then i would understand someone arguing to have them  
degraded to support only.  But if there is a statement of support for  
something, then it is understood that some people will disagree with  
it; otherwise, by definition, it would be a statement of agreement.  
and often during the meeting when I disagreed with a particular  
statement of support i did not say anything whereas if it was a  
statement of agreement I would have.

As I suggested in an earlier message, it is appropriate for the  
people who don't support some statement to add an alternate  
statement, even one that politely explains why they think the support  
statement is brain dead.  I do not think it is appropriate to remove  
a support statement because someone disagrees with it.  I guess that  
is why I will argue against removing any statement that has support,  
even if I don't agree with it totally or even at all.
