[CCWG-ACCT] ALAC Statement on proposed accountability models

[Dr Eberhard W Lisse]

Are the ALAC appointed members now raising an objection against the report?

In other words we no longer have (any) Consensus?

If so, what does that mean?

Can we go home now?

Do we need to write a new report for new Public Comment?

Can the ALAC appointed members continue to remain members or do they need to be replaced by ALAC with individuals who can be taken serious?

greetings, el
