Title: RE: [rights] tyranny of the majority but no consensus

[PD] I can't cite the minutes of the most recent meetings, which have not been posted to the website but it has been reported to me that on

September 18, 2002 the Rights TC voted to adopt the requirements that
had been filed and "dispositioned" as of August 7, 2002. You don't find

[TD] My understanding of the motion and vote was to only adopt requirements that had been filed as of August 7, 2002.  No hard date was set in the motion for when they had to be "dispositioned" by, only that the process for disposition (in order to "disposition" them by some unspecified date prior to October 15, 2002) shall be concensus.

[TD] As a personal comment, I really wish everyone on this TC would make effots to, instead of attacking myths that they construct in their own heads, pause a few minutes to ask first if the myths they have constructed are true.  If we are going to work together, we need to have constructive attitudes.

Thanks,
Thomas.
