We should make clear that this is what we understand to be the default 
position due to the Nairobi decision and subsequent statements of the 
board, but that this position not desired by or has the support of the 
majority of the group. I believe if we can be said to have reached 
something resembling consensus on one issue so far it is that the 
default position is not desired by most of us.

I agree with your assessment that a final poll is useful for displaying 
the current state of the group in the report. Many opinions have 
changed, even if the hardcore groups remain the same.
