Re: Process CG process question - was RE: Agenda Process Document Task Force Tuesday, 2 June 2015

I think we have a larger issue than just the scheduling of the 
meetings.  We have not gotten engagement that all of the changes we are 
proposing are worth doing.

We just completed a ballot for Process2015.  19 AC Members favored the 
changes and there were 4 Formal Objections.  Well over 300 AC Members 
chose not to vote.  There is an AB call in two weeks, and the AB will 
need to decide how to proceed.  Given the tiny participation and the 
quantity of objections it is not obvious that there is sufficient 
consensus to move forward.

To those of us who are active in this activity, we need to work hard to 
make sure that we are making changes that are valued by the constituency.
