Actually, it doesn't say we don't have a 
definition of Consensus. I just acts as if we 
don't exist. But then, we are in company. Neither does the SSAC.

But it does document the "Separation Cross 
Community WG" (the group that would get created 
when IANA messes up so badly we need to replace PTI)!!!

Quite Bizarre.

The link you provide says that it is up to the 
ALAC Chair and RALO leadership to decide on 
Consensus, which is accurate. What it does not 
say is that for the ALAC, the RoP go on to much 
more formally define how that may be done (with out 80% rule-of-thumb).
