When corporate lobbyists or others ask that language be included, I don't take it upon myself to decide this gets in, this stays out, this I'll reword to suit my views rather than those of the person who made the suggestion—even if I strongly disagree with it.  If there's no obvious consensus it goes in brackets and then we try to work it out.  We used to do things that way in the IGC, and I don't recall us deciding on a more centralized approach.

As you know, I did in fact respond to them off-list, prior to you posting this message, because I took exception to your suggestion that I was not approaching this exercise in good faith, but deciding what text to include or exclude based on my personal views.  You have since suggested that I post our off-list discussion back to the list, and I might well do that once I have written a response to your latest.
