false.  We have more members.  But you just went to the end of the webpage
without read the whole.  We have 63 Large members and 102 Small members.

Do you  mean that ICANN Board will not consider never even the idea to add
a new constituency, just because it is not included in the By-Laws?

But because ICANN indicated us the procedures to follow.

Then...which way they have to follow?  Does ICANN Board will give the
opportunity to the supporters of a new constituency the chance to apply?
If yes, how can they apply?

Will ICANN accept this way to proceed? First a new constituency have to
resolved to be created before a charter be drafted for futher aprooval, as
historically happened with the actual seven constituencies.  And such
charter has to be made by the group or groups that wish to organize such
constituency, then charters are submited to ICANN, then ICANN aprooves the
charter of the group they find more suitable.  I didn't invented this
procedure, this was setted-up by ICANN for the seven constituencies.   The
clue is: which procedures has to follow to add a new consitutency?
