</span>Trying to revive a Designator Model, or any other model that cannot<br>
provide enforceability[*], is hardly the way to achieve support for<br>
transition. While I understand that you don't think enforceability is<br>
important, you surely must realise by now that it is considered<br>
essential by many.<br>
<br>
Even if you succeeded in pushing CCWG into this change, all you would<br>
achieve would be to convince a sizable chunk of the community to<br>
campaign against transition.<br>
<br>
Have you communicated to your colleagues in ALAC that you say were<br>
enthused by this supposed alternative that it would just provoke<br>
opposition to transition altogether? Or are they under the impression<br>
that this is something that is likely to win a broad consensus?<br>
<br>
Malcolm.<br>
<br>
[*] I'm simplifying slightly by mentioning only enforceability: having a<br>
Member also changes how the fiduciary duty works, which is also<br>
crucially important. Becky explained this much more articulately than I can.<br>
