He's wrong, Chris. The GA is not where the constituencies meet. The
GA is:
[...] an open forum for participation in the work of the DNSO, and
open to all who are willing to contribute effort to the work of the
DNSO. The participants in the GA should be individuals who have a
knowledge of and an interest in issues pertaining to the areas for
which the DNSO has primary responsibility, and who are willing to
contribute time, effort and expertise to the work of the DNSO,
including work item proposal and development, discussion of work
items, draft document preparation, and participation in research and
drafting committees and working groups.
As you can see, nowhere in here does it mention [C|c}onstituencies.
The GA is the catch-all for anyone who wishes to participate, regardless
of their membership in a constituency, or lack thereof.
