Milton predicted it would get messy, and it seems he was right.

The real purpose of constituencies is to give a few people a little power base from which they can operate; to empower some at the expense of the rest of us. The other purpose is to fragment our communication as a stakeholder group. No one who supports the mission of NCSG will really want to form a new constituency. They can form interest groups, ad hoc coalitions, working groups and so on. All that can and will be done and will lead to constructive results. But constituency-formation is a way fpr people to fragment and undermine NCSG and I would not encourage anyone to pursue it.
