color:#1F497D'>By way of background, unlike the Charter drafting groups, which are
typically kept relatively small, when we get to the stage where the PDP Working
Group is being convened, the draft Working Group Guidelines currently being
developed encourage broad community participation that reflects “the
diversity and representativeness of the GNSO community”. Typically
the size of Working Groups are not limited (unlike Task Forces used in the
past) and interested community members are encouraged to join. There is a
draft Guideline that members of a WG are expected to be active participants
(others might opt for an observer role) but the general rule of thumb on
working group membership is openness and inclusiveness. This is a link to the
most recent draft Guidelines prepared by the Working Groups Work Team. <a

multiple participants from the same constituency or stakeholder group (even
more community participation in most current groups would be even better!!!).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
