In response to the compromise I suggested
on July 31 [i], the group demonstrated
broad support for a 1+2 structure, with an
objection from Jean-Jacques and ALAC. This
included support from people who had
previously stated preferences for other
structures, and even support from people
who had previously said they could not
live with 1+2. This is what some people
might call “consensus” and what I would
normally describe as “rough consensus” in
support of 1+2.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
