Right, I deliberately left that out. Development of collective opinion is perhaps a worthwhile goal, but is honored more in the breach than in realization. There are probably a few cases in which it would be successful, but in most cases it is too difficult to develop a single, consensually agreed position, the boundaries of participation in the caucus list are too loose, and it's probably absurd for us to pretend to speak for CS anyway.

Orgs like Internet Gov. Project, APC, CPSR can develop positions and statements. Ad hoc coalitions can grow out of the caucus and develop joint statements.
