The problem with this Philip is how does one decide the weighting of
representation at the Council?  Just adding on a small business and a
registrants constituency would help but I struggle with the notion
that all constituencies automatically have the same number of Council
seats as one could have anywhere between 4 and 15 constituencies
depending how you sub-divide some groups.

Should Council representation be tied to how much one pays to ICANN?
how many active members the constituency has? how many people a
constituency indirectly represents etc?

The one person one vote proposal has some appeal as any other division
of representation is arbitrary or worse.
