Re: [ga] Re: news from bucharest: at large exists again
Marc, I think you are missing the point. It will be easy to get your
organization included in the at-large.org thing. It just doesn't mean
anything. You can't vote or freely choose your own leaders. You just
become a volenteer focus group for the staff, and you get used to allow the
board to claim they have an at large.
