That's right. Yes.

There's been a lot of feedback since the original proposal, and I'm
happy to collate that and present it objectively at either meeting.
It's often difficult to get the entire CC to meetings, so sometimes
there's not enough to make a decision there and then. But it's worth
discussing. It's not a foregone conclusion as some have suggested, and
the fact that I raised it and I'm on the CC doesn't really make any
difference, if anyone had added it to the agenda it would have been
considered the same way.

Cheers,
Al.

And now we go into the "let's play the pedantics-semantics game"..........



However, I really feel for Alan - what he states is not valued and is 
ignored by the other members of the CoC.

Not only is this a slap-in-the face and therefore hurtful to Alan but it 
also indicates the insensitivity of those who are on the CoC and how 
they "operate" (for want of a less offensive word).

Not nice, not nice at all.*
