</div>
<div>Many thanks for the question. I suspect others on this thread will also benefit from the clarification.  </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The intent is to collect feedback from each SO/AC/SG/C rather than individual members from those groups. This will ensure that any resulting changes reflects the guidance provided by the community structures. </div>

<div>David,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I want to be clear on what the intent is here since the ask is not explicit that I can tell.  Are you looking for each SO/AC to provide their feedback as an SO/AC as a whole, or are you looking for us to disseminate this to our respective members so they
 can contribute individually?  Reading between the lines, I’m concerned that it’s the former, and with only 10 days notice, I don’t think any SO/AC could turn around a consensus opinion on this - I know SSAC won’t be able to.  I’m sure individuals who have
 been tracking this situation will have plenty of good insight to share, but of course, cannot speak for each group, just as individuals associated with a group.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you in advance for your clarification to me on this, and apologies for being dense - I just want to make sure I’ve got this right.</div>
