Re: [council] NC agenda item 3 (revised) GAC statement

["Ken Stubbs" <kstubbs@digitel.net>]

fellow council members...

frankly, i believe that this latest draft is worded in such a way, as well
as placed for discussion at such a late hour,   that i cannot support it as
it currently is written  without further consultation with my constituancy.

I am quite concerned by this draft (particularly # 1 & 2 in the NC
recommendations). It, in my opinion, is much too much of a "confrontational"
document and some of the language is much to "harsh"..
