I'm sorry, Joanna - but this is garbage. Re-read the message you've
replied to. Read the third paragraph. What, precisely, didn't you
understand about the words "put it on the table for discussion"?
So, once again, let me outline the process I'd expect to be followed
just in case there was a misunderstanding:
1. Idea for a motion. Discussion of that idea, drafting of a _real_
motion.
2. Support. (May have been demonstrated during the discussion.)
3. Vote.
We currently have an idea (draft, proposal, whatever you want to
call it) for a motion. Now, please discuss the topic at hand:
Should the GA make the comment Jamie has suggested? Why? Why not?
My contribution to that discussion is on the table. My questions
about the proposal are on the table, too.
It's up to those who support the proposal to take up this
discussion.
As I said before, a lot of times: You are at the beginning of step
one now. Please start discussion on the substance of the motion.
Don't do straw polls at this point of time, don't demand votes at
this point of time.
