Agree with Jeremy.<br>
<br>
I suggest we draft in the Best Bits community and then share with
Governance. I am sure many IGC members will be in support, and it
might even be possible for Norbert and Sala to negotiated an IGC
endorsement once we have a finalised text. But if we start the
drafting there it will just be too complex. Drafting is best done in
small teams who then gather input in a relatively structured manner.<br>

preparatory process.<br>

a letter than it is for Best Bits, since the IGC requires
consensus. And there are enough IGC members saying "no" to the
letter already that I wonder whether consensus will be possible...<br>
