The constituencies do this.  The GA is not the coordinator of the
constituencies.  It is not the role of the GA at all.

I see no evidence to back up that statement.

The mailing list experiment has been a failure.  It is time to cut the
losses.

If anything the lists have caused more divisiveness.  What will happen
in those lists is that you will collect only the polar opposites.
Work will not get done, since those two polar opposites will never be
able to come to any kind of agreement.
