Malcolm,

The Corporation has several bylaws, reflecting changes in its 
composition, e.g., the dissolution of the Protocol Supporting 
Organization (PSO) and the substitution of Technical Liaisons as 
non-voting members, and reflecting changes in its process as it carries 
out its business as a nonprofit public benefit corporation. I would be 
benefited by a more specific statement, one that mentions some phrase in 
the current bylaws and posits some example conduct that is difficult to 
reconcile with the phrase in question.

Similarly, the Corporation's mandate is a broad field, and the intent of 
the incorporators, the initial Board of Directors and each succeeding 
Board of Directors reflect a dynamic interpretation of the Corporation's 
statement of purpose and external circumstances. Again, I would be 
benefited by a more specific statement, one that mentions some phrase in 
the statement of purpose (see also the discussion of what constitutes 
the public interest in the main list) and posits some example conduct 
that is difficult to reconcile with the phrase in question.
