 From Avri's proposes template " The IGC is ...*. The participants in 
the IGC support this petition. "

Dont understand what it means.... to me it means all participants in IGC 
support, which means IGC supports......

And if there is a typo and it is meant to say "the following or 
undersigned participants in the IGC support the petition"

I am not sure how this in between category works, to me either (1) IGC 
is supporting something or (2) a set of individuals/ orgs are supporting 
something with no reference to IGC

What is bar to qualify for this new in-between category, indicated b 
Avri's framing...... Can, for instance,  I and a friend, also on the IGC 
list, build up a statement and say,

"The IGC is ....... . The following  participants in the IGC support 
this petition".

My view: either IGC supports something and otherwise there is no mention 
of IGC...
