Roberto,

Well, we suddenly had a side-track about list evictions and list rules again.
But yes, perhaps there is a lack of interest to bring the matter to a vote
in the virtual GA , after it has already been voted on in the physical GA.

I must interpret this lack of interest as agreement/ endorsement with how
the physical GA in Yokohama voted.
Good enough this time. 
The burden of demanding discussion and another vote belongs to those who
feel that this virtual GA would now vote substantially different on the issue.

But this GA should watch the actions of the NC and its Task Force sharply.
There is still the question as to when our public WG will be started.
(another resolution of the GA in Yokohama) 

I am sorry that my arguments cannot convince you that a voting exercise in
the on-line GA is not a waste of time, but I understand that you are busy
with the discussions on the European A-L candidates list.
