I appreciate the clear statement of your view, which is consistent
with what you have been saying for many weeks. <br>
<br>
I just want others to tell their clear views as well.... Not tell
us that well this is what has already happened and so.... But what
is their preferences (and what was it at Bali, and if there is a
change of view, some clarification will be extremely helpful).<br>
<br>
I also agree with Bill that we should stop causing confusion, and
clearly arrive at a view and tell it to the outside world.<br>

PS: Marking to IGC, where I would like this issue to be put to
vote. <br>

<div>Once again, please, some participants from two civil

LOG rather than through the people they put on the 1net SC to,
um, talk to the LOG (and who indeed have asked the 1net to
communicate for them to the LOG).</div>

<div>I agree, this has been going on for two months now. Some
folks saying this is what IGC and BB folks in Bali agreed and
that’s our final position, others saying other things, and
most IGC members and BB subscribers (there are no members)
unaware, unconcerned, or in any event not weighing in. It’s
causing continuing confusion in the LOG, the 1Net SC, other
stakeholder groups, etc. So whether there’s rough consensus
that the position is unchanged or changed in light of the
evolution since Bali, let’s please get clear on it so the
communication with others stops causing confusion.</div>

<div>I am a IGC member and BB subscriber and I favor working
through the 1net SC as the Brazilians have asked. I’m also a
1net SC member representing academia.</div>
