[CPWG] PIR sale…

[Marita Moll]

I am afraid I am starting to feel this way as well. The end user voice 
that we are here to provide is becoming a glaring absence. And we need 
to do more than ask for a seat on the PIR board. We should be joining 
our voice to others asking why and how the public interest aspect of 
this corner of the ecosystem can be so easily abandoned.
