Rosemary: Can you explain to me how you handle the CSG/NCSG problem? If the answer is "CC is only applying to NCSG" I will not consider it an acceptable answer and will oppose the formation of this constituency. I will say that in our discussions with ALAC most of the people we talked to agreed that it made more sense to advance a consumer agenda than it did to form a consumer constituency. --MM > -----Original Message----- > From: NCSG-NCUC [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of > Rosemary Sinclair > Sent: Friday, June 24, 2011 9:41 PM > To: [log in to unmask] > Subject: Re: [NCSG-NCUC-DISCUSS] Results of the Chartering process > > Hi Avri > > I'm prepared to try to progress the Consumer Constituency - having > thought about Milton's idea from NCSG Constituency Day, I still think we > need to move forward with a formal constituency.
