Ditto Mary's explanation, the suggestion of two was not based on a SG representation model, but rather the value-added of the different orientations they'll bring to the table.  Which, per previous, will likely mesh in important respects with the views of other SGs rather than double representing a singular NCSG view.

Best,

Bill

In other situations and over other issues, equal representation of each group may be a fundamental concern, but in this case I believe NCSG is recommending Avri and Milton not because we believe we (or everyone) needs at least two (or however many) representatives. Rather, and for the reasons that Bill has stated, Avri and Milton will best represent NCSG in terms of what is likely to be a difficult preliminary issue (i.e. scoping out the WG).

Even if NCSG were to resolve its internal differences on these points, there would probably still be differences between the houses once the discussion gets to specifics. We're dealing with a rather variable geometry of perspectives, and as I say both people mentioned will add to working these things through.

Avri and Milton have been very active and thoughtful proponents of those respective perspectives, both of which overlap/synergize in some ways with the positions advanced by other SGs.  Should be an interesting discussion...
