or rather deal with the mythology of there being an overlap

- the NCSG/NCUC deals only with GTLD issues
- the NCSG/NCUC only included noncommercial actors

- The At Large can deal with anything and give advice on anything
- The At Large can include commercial as well as noncommercial actors.

They are orthogonal to each other:

One is a supporting organization
One is an advisory groups

One sets policy in a constrained area
One defines principles and give advise of any and all policy areas

They can work together, but overlap no more then any two perpendicular things overlap - at just one point - they both care about a civil society perspective.

One more thing, resolving the historical difference between At LArge and NCSG/NCUC would be a good thing as it would save on wear and tear of the people, but would do little to make ICANN more productive.

a.

BTW, i am a members of both At large by being a member of an ALS and am a members of NCUC and hence NCSG.  many people are in both.
